[PATCH] kernel: audit_tree: Fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug

[Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@gmail.com>]

The kernel may sleep with holding a spinlock.
The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16.7 are:

[FUNC] kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL)
fs/notify/mark.c, 439: 
		kmem_cache_alloc in fsnotify_attach_connector_to_object
fs/notify/mark.c, 520: 
		fsnotify_attach_connector_to_object in fsnotify_add_mark_list
fs/notify/mark.c, 590: 
		fsnotify_add_mark_list in fsnotify_add_mark_locked
kernel/audit_tree.c, 437: 
		fsnotify_add_mark_locked in tag_chunk
kernel/audit_tree.c, 423: 
		spin_lock in tag_chunk

[FUNC] kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL)
fs/notify/mark.c, 439: 
		kmem_cache_alloc in fsnotify_attach_connector_to_object
fs/notify/mark.c, 520: 
		fsnotify_attach_connector_to_object in fsnotify_add_mark_list
fs/notify/mark.c, 590: 
		fsnotify_add_mark_list in fsnotify_add_mark_locked
kernel/audit_tree.c, 291: 
		fsnotify_add_mark_locked in untag_chunk
kernel/audit_tree.c, 258: 
		spin_lock in untag_chunk

To fix this bug, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.

This bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC-2) and checked by my
code review.
