From: Yuiko Oshino yuiko.oshino@microchip.com Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2021 14:23:02 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] net: ethernet: microchip: lan743x: Fix skb allocation failure
The driver allocates skb during ndo_open with GFP_ATOMIC which has high chance of failure when there are multiple instances. GFP_KERNEL is enough while open and use GFP_ATOMIC only from interrupt context.
