The FQ implementation used by mac80211 allocates memory using kmalloc(),
which can fail; and Johannes reported that this actually happens in
practice.

To avoid this, switch the allocation to kvmalloc() instead; this also
brings fq_impl in line with all the FQ qdiscs.

Fixes: 557fc4a09803 ("fq: add fair queuing framework")
