Zenghui Yu d1bd7e0ba5 irqchip/gic-v4.1: Use GFP_ATOMIC flag in allocate_vpe_l1_table()
Booting the latest kernel with DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y on a GICv4.1 enabled
box, I get the following kernel splat:

It turned out that we're allocating memory using GFP_KERNEL (may sleep)
within the CPU hotplug notifier, which is indeed an atomic context. Bad
thing may happen if we're playing on a system with more than a single
CommonLPIAff group. Avoid it by turning this into an atomic allocation.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
