selinux: enable use of both GFP_KERNEL and GFP_ATOMIC in convert_context()

The following warning was triggered on a hardware environment:

  SELinux: Context system_u:object_r:pssp_rsyslog_log_t:s0:c0 is
           not valid (left unmapped).

It was found that within a critical section of spin_lock_irqsave in
sidtab_context_to_sid(), convert_context() (hooked by
sidtab_convert_params.func) might cause the process to sleep via
allocating memory with GFP_KERNEL, which is problematic.

As Ondrej pointed out [1], convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func
has another caller sidtab_convert_tree(), which is okay with GFP_KERNEL.
Therefore, fix this problem by adding a gfp_t argument for
convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func and pass GFP_KERNEL/_ATOMIC
properly in individual callers.
