net/fq_impl: Switch to kvmalloc() for memory allocation
[ Upstream commit 71e67c3bd127cfe7863f54e4b087eba1cc8f9a7a ]
The FQ implementation used by mac80211 allocates memory using kmalloc(),
which can fail; and Johannes reported that this actually happens in
practice.
To avoid this, switch the allocation to kvmalloc() instead; this also
brings fq_impl in line with all the FQ qdiscs.
Fixes: 557fc4a09803 ("fq: add fair queuing framework")
