ax25: use GFP_KERNEL in ax25_dev_device_up()
ax25_dev_device_up() is only called during device setup, which is
done in user context. In addition, ax25_dev_device_up()
unconditionally calls ax25_register_dev_sysctl(), which already
allocates with GFP_KERNEL.
Since it is allowed to sleep in this function, here we change
ax25_dev_device_up() to use GFP_KERNEL to reduce unnecessary
out-of-memory errors.
