Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 3.18 020/101] scsi: megaraid: Fix a
 sleep-in-atomic bug

From: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@....com>

[ Upstream commit 896f6966fc815abe71f85fb26f0193875df8a035 ]

The driver may sleep under a spin lock, and the function call path is:
mraid_mm_attach_buf (acquire the lock by spin_lock_irqsave)
  pci_pool_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep

To fix it, the "GFP_KERNEL" is replaced with "GFP_ATOMIC".
