While mapping DMA for scatter list when a scsi command is queued the
existing call to dma_alloc_coherent() in our map_sg_data() function
passes zero for the gfp_flags parameter. We are most definitly in atomic
context at this point as queue_command() is called in softirq context
and further we have a spinlock holding the scsi host lock.
Fix this by passing GFP_ATOMIC to dma_alloc_coherent() to prevent any
sort of sleeping in atomic context deadlock.
