Thanks for comment.
I have selected GFP flags based on existing code.
I have selected GFP_ATOMIC in inet6_netconf_get_devconf() because
skb was allocated with GFP_ATOMIC.
Point is : we should remove GFP_ATOMIC uses as much as we can.
Everytime we see one of them, we should think why it was added
and if this is really needed.
inet6_netconf_get_devconf() is a perfect example of one careless
GFP_ATOMIC usage
