I can't figure out what protects concurrent accesses to this shared
ixgbe_jump_table[].  Is RTNL held here?  If so it's likely that
GFP_ATOMIC can be changed to GFP_KERNEL in this function.

This is only called from tc_ctl_tfilter which is wrapped in the
rtnl_lock as you suspected.

Thanks for the catch I'll convert it to GFP_KERNEL along with the
other spot I copy pasted the GFP_ATOMIC code from.
