Subject: [kernel-hardening] [RFC PATCH 09/19] net: convert from atomic_t to refcount_t
Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2016 08:56:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1482994571-18687-10-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1482994571-18687-1-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com>

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. Convert the cases found.
