Subject: iscsit: use GFP_ATOMIC under spin lock
From: Wei Yongjun <[email protected]>
commit 3c989d7603872bf878840f7ce3ea49b73bea4c6c upstream.
The function iscsit_build_conn_drop_async_message() is called
from iscsit_close_connection() with spin lock 'sess->conn_lock'
held, so we should use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL.
