[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 01/18] batman-adv: Place kref_get for orig_node_vlan near use

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 01/18] batman-adv: Place kref_get for orig_node_vlan near use

[Sven Eckelmann]

It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done
near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right
before the place which requires the reference and in the same function
helps to avoid accidental problems causedy incorrect reference counting.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 14/18] batman-adv: Place kref_get for softif_vlan near use

[Sven Eckelmann]

It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done
near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right
before the place which requires the reference and in the same function
helps to avoid accidental problems causedy incorrect reference counting.
