[RFC 3/3] arm: add refcounting for task stacks

From: zsm@chromium.org (Zubin Mithra)

Subject: [RFC 3/3] arm: add refcounting for task stacks
Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2018 17:08:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180315170859.93893-4-zsm@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180315170859.93893-1-zsm@chromium.org>

When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is enabled, thread stacks may be freed
before a stack is destroyed. This patch adds in recounting to ensure
freed stacks are not used. If CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is not used, no
refcounting is performed.
