[ Upstream commit 999865764f5f128896402572b439269acb471022 ]

The kernel module may sleep with holding a spinlock.

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

[FUNC] get_zeroed_page(GFP_NOFS)
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmdebug.c, 332: get_zeroed_page in dlm_print_one_mle
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 240: dlm_print_one_mle in __dlm_put_mle
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 255: __dlm_put_mle in dlm_put_mle
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 254: spin_lock in dlm_put_ml

[FUNC] get_zeroed_page(GFP_NOFS)
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmdebug.c, 332: get_zeroed_page in dlm_print_one_mle
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 240: dlm_print_one_mle in __dlm_put_mle
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 222: __dlm_put_mle in dlm_put_mle_inuse
fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmmaster.c, 219: spin_lock in dlm_put_mle_inuse

To fix this bug, GFP_NOFS is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.

This bug is found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
