We have Fedora bug report about memory allocation failure in bnx2_open
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612861). To prevent
failure we can allow allocator to sleep. Both patches add
GFP_KERNEL flag where possible, first patch in alloc API, second
in DMA API (after conversion from pci_dma_*).
