x86/ldt: use vfree_atomic() to free ldt entries
vfree() is going to use sleeping lock. free_ldt_struct() may be called with disabled preemption, therefore we must use vfree_atomic() here. E.g. call trace: vfree() free_ldt_struct() destroy_context_ldt() __mmdrop() finish_task_switch() schedule_tail() ret_from_fork() Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1479474236-4139-7-git-send-email-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joelaf@google.com> Cc: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@marvell.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: John Dias <joaodias@google.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.
