[patch] netlabel: use GFP flags from caller instead of GFP_ATOMIC

From: Dan Carpenter <hidden>
Date: 2012-03-22 06:41:10
Also in: kernel-janitors
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [labeled] (netlabel, labeled ipsec, secmark), the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Paul Moore, Linus Torvalds

This function takes a GFP flags as a parameter, but they are never used.
We don't take a lock in this function so there is no reason to prefer
GFP_ATOMIC over the caller's GFP flags.

There is only one caller, cipso_v4_map_cat_rng_ntoh(), and it passes
GFP_ATOMIC as the GFP flags so this doesn't change how the code works.
It's just a cleanup.
