Use GFP_ATOMIC when allocating pages out of the hotpath,
continue to use GFP_KERNEL when allocating pages during setup.
GFP_KERNEL will allow blocking which allows it to succeed
more often in a low memory enviornment but in the hotpath we do
not want to allow the allocation to block.

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.
