Previous memory allocations in this function already use GFP_KERNEL, so use __dev_alloc_skb() and an explicit GFP_KERNEL instead of an implicit GFP_ATOMIC. This gives more opportunities of successful allocation. Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> --- net/mac80211/mesh.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
