objpool: fix to make percpu slot allocation more robust
Since gfp & GFP_ATOMIC == GFP_ATOMIC is true for GFP_KERNEL | GFP_HIGH, it will use kmalloc if user specifies that combination. Here the reason why combining the __vmalloc_node() and kmalloc_node() is that the vmalloc does not support all GFP flag, especially GFP_ATOMIC. So we should check if gfp & (GFP_ATOMIC | GFP_KERNEL) != GFP_ATOMIC for vmalloc first. This ensures caller can sleep. And for the robustness, even if vmalloc fails, it should retry with kmalloc to allocate it.
