Subject: [PATCH 5.4 036/107] drm/amdgpu/display: use GFP_ATOMIC in dcn20_validate_bandwidth_internal

From: Daniel Kolesa <daniel@...aforge.org>

commit f41ed88cbd6f025f7a683a11a74f901555fba11c upstream.

GFP_KERNEL may and will sleep, and this is being executed in
a non-preemptible context; this will mess things up since it's
called inbetween DC_FP_START/END, and rescheduling will result
in the DC_FP_END later being called in a different context (or
just crashing if any floating point/vector registers/instructions
are used after the call is resumed in a different context).
