ethernet: rocker: fix sleep in atomic context bug in neigh_timer_handler

category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6CSFH

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=406d554844cccfd981845c068e0590acf6f643fa



--------------------------------

[ Upstream commit c0955bf9 ]

The function neigh_timer_handler() is a timer handler that runs in an
atomic context. When used by rocker, neigh_timer_handler() calls
"kzalloc(.., GFP_KERNEL)" that may sleep. As a result, the sleep in
atomic context bug will happen. One of the processes is shown below:

ofdpa_fib4_add()
 ...
 neigh_add_timer()

(wait a timer)

neigh_timer_handler()
 neigh_release()
  neigh_destroy()
   rocker_port_neigh_destroy()
    rocker_world_port_neigh_destroy()
     ofdpa_port_neigh_destroy()
      ofdpa_port_ipv4_neigh()
       kzalloc(sizeof(.., GFP_KERNEL) //may sleep

This patch changes the gfp_t parameter of kzalloc() from GFP_KERNEL to
GFP_ATOMIC in order to mitigate the bug.
