[PATCH net 1/1] hv_netvsc: Allocate memory in netvsc_dma_map() with GFP_ATOMIC

From: Michael Kelley <hidden>
Date: 2023-02-06 20:13:33
Also in: linux-hyperv, lkml, stable
Subsystem: hyper-v/azure core and drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: "K. Y. Srinivasan", Haiyang Zhang, Wei Liu, Dexuan Cui, Long Li, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Memory allocations in the network transmit path must use GFP_ATOMIC
so they won't sleep.
