4.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheu...@linaro.org> commit 3c08377262880afc1621ab9cb6dbe7df47a6033d upstream. Due to the use of per-CPU buffers, scomp_acomp_comp_decomp() executes with preemption disabled, and so whether the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP flag is set is irrelevant, since we cannot sleep anyway. So disregard the flag, and use GFP_ATOMIC unconditionally.
