Since ehea_get_stats calls ehea_h_query_ehea_port, which
can sleep, we can also sleep when allocating a page in
this function. This fixes some memory allocation failure
warnings seen under low memory conditions.

I believe there is a problem with this patch and/or bonding.

If we say ndo_get_stats() methods are allowed to sleep, then 
bond_get_stats() should be updated, because it currently calls
dev_get_stats() from a read_lock_bh(&bond->lock); section.

Are we allowed to sleep inside a read_lock_bh() ?
