[PATCH] virtio_console: allocate the port_buffer with the caller's gfp

[Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>]

put_chars() runs from the hvc console write path with preemption
disabled, so it asks alloc_buf() for GFP_ATOMIC. Only the data buffer
gets it: the struct port_buffer itself keeps the GFP_KERNEL default, so
the allocation can enter direct reclaim and sleep. A write to /dev/kmsg
on a CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP kernel splats:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/sched/mm.h:320
  in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: virtme-ng-init
  preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
  Preemption disabled at:

Pass gfp on to that allocation too.
