rxe_mcast_add_grp_elem() in rxe_mcast.c calls rxe_alloc() while holding
spinlocks which in turn calls kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL) which is incorrect.
This patch replaces rxe_alloc() by rxe_alloc_locked() which uses GFP_ATOMIC.
This bug was caused by the below mentioned commit and failing to handle the
need for the atomic allocate.

Fixes: 4276fd0dddc9 ("Remove RXE_POOL_ATOMIC")
