Subject: [xfrm_user] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context

Hello,
I just noticed this message in my log (I'm not sure what charon was
doing at the time...):

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/kronos/src/linux-2.6.git/mm/slub.c:1701

xfrm_user_policy takes read_lock(&xfrm_km_lock) before calling
xfrm_compile_policy (via km->compile_policy), which in turn calls
xfrm_policy_alloc with GFP_KERNEL.
