dmaengine: bcm2835: Avoid GFP_KERNEL in device_prep_slave_sg
The commit af19b7ce ("mmc: bcm2835: Avoid possible races on data requests") introduces a possible circular locking dependency, which is triggered by swapping to the sdhost interface. So instead of reintroduce the race condition again, we could also avoid this situation by using GFP_NOWAIT for the allocation of the DMA buffer descriptors.
