It means it should not allocate memory while holding a rawspinlock since it is not safe for RT. rawspinlock is needed because bpflocalstorage supports tracing context. In particular for task local storage, it is easy to get a "current" task PTRTOBTFID in tracing bpf prog. However, task (and cgroup) local storage has already been moved to bpf mem allocator which can be used after rawspinlock. The splat is for the sk storage. For sk (and inode) storage, it has not been moved to bpf mem allocator. Using rawspinlock or not, kzalloc(GFPATOMIC) could theoretically be unsafe in tracing context. However, the local storage helper requires a verifier accepted sk pointer (PTRTOBTFID), it is hypothetical if that (mean running a bpf prog in a kzalloc unsafe context and also able to hold a verifier accepted sk pointer) could happen. This patch avoids kzalloc after rawspinlock to silent the splat. There is an existing kzalloc before the rawspin_lock. At that point, a kzalloc is very likely required because a lookup has just been done before. Thus, this patch always does the kzalloc before acq ---truncated---
