objpool intends to use vmalloc for default (non-atomic) allocations of
percpu slots and objects. However, the condition checking if GFP flags
set any bit of GFP_ATOMIC is wrong b/c GFP_ATOMIC is a combination of bits
(__GFP_HIGH|__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM) and so `pool->gfp & GFP_ATOMIC` will
be true if either bit is set. Since GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL share the
___GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM bit, kmalloc will be used in cases when GFP_KERNEL
is specified, i.e. in all current usages of objpool.
This may lead to unexpected OOM errors since kmalloc cannot allocate
large amounts of memory.
For instance, objpool is used by fprobe rethook which in turn is used by
BPF kretprobe.multi and kprobe.session probe types. Trying to attach
these to all kernel functions with libbpf using
SEC("kprobe.session/*")
int kprobe(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
[...]
}
fails on objpool slot allocation with ENOMEM.
Fix the condition to truly use vmalloc by default.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
