PATCH 1/1 scsi/initio: add GFP_KERNEL flag
Calling scb = kzalloc(i, GFP_DMA) is not the right idea. If this is what we really wanted it would be better to specify it explicitly as kzalloc(i, GFP_NOWAIT | GFP_DMA). But in this case it's OK to wait so I changed it to use GFP_KERNEL. Also I added a __GFP_NOWARN, since we expect the allocation to fail occasionaly (and we just try allocate a smaller amount on the next time through the loop).
