Subject[PATCH] ACPI - change GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL for non-atomic allocation
Hi,

drivers/acpi/pci_link.c::acpi_pci_link_set() sets the GFP_ATOMIC for
kmalloc() allocation for no first-sight obvious reason; as far as I can
see this is always called outside the atomic/interrupt context, so
GFP_KERNEL allocation should be used instead.

If applicable, please apply
