Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: avoid sleep while executing atombios table

This patch replaces kzalloc's flag from GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC to avoid
sleeping in atomic context.

Signed-off-by: Shirish S <shiris...@amd.com>
Does this actually fix a bug or is it just to be safe.  Do actually call atom 
command tables in an atomic context?
I have re-spun V2 patch, with the stack trace so that you can see the path taken.

For reference below is the trace:

I see it on Stoney when the system's display turns off while entering idle-suspend.

Its caused when a BUG hit in the kernel.

Thanks & Regards,
