Change kzalloc() flags used in ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa() to GFP_ATOMIC, to
avoid sleeping in IRQ context.
Dan Carpenter, with the help of Smatch, has found following issue:
The patch eda0333ac293: "ixgbe: add VF IPsec management" from Aug 13,
2018 (linux-next), leads to the following Smatch static checker
warning: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_ipsec.c:917
ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa()
warn: sleeping in IRQ context
The call tree that Smatch is worried about is:
ixgbe_msix_other() <- IRQ handler
-> ixgbe_msg_task()
-> ixgbe_rcv_msg_from_vf()
-> ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa()
