Subject: net: Fix RCU splat in af_key

commit ba51b6be38c122f7dab40965b4397aaf6188a464 upstream.

Hit the following splat testing VRF change for ipsec:

In pfkey_sendmsg the net mutex is taken and then pfkey_broadcast takes
the RCU lock.

Since pfkey_broadcast takes the RCU lock the allocation argument is
pointless since GFP_ATOMIC must be used between the rcu_read_{,un}lock.
The one call outside of rcu can be done with GFP_KERNEL.
