NAK, GFP_ATOMIC should be avoided.

The correct solution is to move the allocation out of the spinlock or drop the lock and reacquire.

Subject: [PATCH] drm: fix call_kern.cocci warnings (fwd)

The containing function is called with a spin_lock held, so GFP_KERNEL can't
be used.

drivers/gpu/drm/drm_syncobj.c:202:4-14: ERROR: function
drm_syncobj_find_signal_pt_for_point called on line 390 inside lock on line
389 but uses GFP_KERNEL

  Find functions that refer to GFP_KERNEL but are called with locks held.

Semantic patch information:
  The proposed change of converting the GFP_KERNEL is not necessarily the
correct one.  It may be desired to unlock the lock, or to not call the  function
under the lock in the first place.
