Yes, this is true for users that pass GFP_ATOMIC to sa_query, at least. But
might not be so for other users: send_mad in sa_query actually gets gfp_flags
parameter, but for some reason it does not pass it to idr_pre_get, which means
even sa query done with GFP_KERNEL flag is likely to fail.

I noticed this same thing looking at the code yesterday. I can't think of any
reason why your patch wouldn't work.
