ipv6: avoid high order allocations
With mtu=9000, mld_newpack() use order-2 GFP_ATOMIC allocations, that are very unreliable, on machines where PAGE_SIZE=4K Limit allocated skbs to be at most one page. (order-0 allocations) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
