sch_gred: prefer GFP_KERNEL allocations
In control path, its better to use GFP_KERNEL allocations where possible. Before taking qdisc spinlock, we preallocate memory just in case we'll need it in gred_change_vq() This is a followup to commit 3f1e6d3fd37b (sch_gred: should not use GFP_KERNEL while holding a spinlock) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
