[PATCH] fs: jffs2: fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in jffs2_alloc_refblock()

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

The kernel may sleep with holding a spin lock.

The function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16 are:

[FUNC] kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL)
fs/jffs2/malloc.c, 188: 
	kmem_cache_alloc in jffs2_alloc_refblock
fs/jffs2/malloc.c, 221: 
	jffs2_alloc_refblock in jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs
fs/jffs2/wbuf.c, 164: 
	jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs in jffs2_block_refile
fs/jffs2/wbuf.c, 927: 
	jffs2_block_refile in jffs2_flash_writev
fs/jffs2/wbuf.c, 924: 
	spin_lock in jffs2_flash_writev

To fix it, GFP_KERNEL in kmem_cache_alloc() is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
	
This is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC).
