[NET]: Handle disabled preemption in gfp_any()
ctnetlink uses netlink_unicast from an atomic_notifier_chain
(which is called within a RCU read side critical section)
without holding further locks. netlink_unicast calls netlink_trim
with the result of gfp_any() for the gfp flags, which are passed
down to pskb_expand_header. gfp_any() only checks for softirq
context and returns GFP_KERNEL, resulting in this warning:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:3032
in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():0
no locks held by rmmod/7010.

Since netlink_unicast is supposed to be callable from within RCU
read side critical sections, make gfp_any() check for in_atomic()
instead of in_softirq().
Additionally nfnetlink_send needs to use gfp_any() as well for the
call to netlink_broadcast).
