[ Upstream commit 3f167e1921865b379a9becf03828e7202c7b4917 ]
ipv4_pdp_add() is called in RCU read-side critical section. So GFP_KERNEL should not be used in the function. This patch make ipv4_pdp_add() to use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL.
Test commands: gtp-link add gtp1 & gtp-tunnel add gtp1 v1 100 200 1.1.1.1 2.2.2.2
