Fix sleeping in atomic context warnings reported by the Smatch static
analysis tool. Use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL in atomic context.

Fixes: 70721089985c ("media: nuvoton: Add driver for NPCM video capture and encoding engine")

I'm not really sure this is the right approach.

Looking closer at the code I notice that npcm_video_irq is a threaded
interrupt handler, so wouldn't it be easier to change the video->lock
spinlock to a mutex?

Agree it's better to use mutex. Will send v2 for this.
