The driver may sleep under a write spin lock, and the function
call path is:
cachefiles_mark_object_active (acquire the lock by write_lock)
cachefiles_printk_object
kmalloc(GFP_NOIO) --> may sleep
cachefiles_mark_object_buried (acquire the lock by write_lock)
cachefiles_printk_object
kmalloc(GFP_NOIO) --> may sleep
To fix it, "GFP_NOIO" is replaced with "GFP_ATOMIC".
