[PATCH 10/11] drivers/misc/vmw_vmci: convert num guest devices counter to counter_atomic32

[Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>]

counter_atomic* is introduced to be used when a variable is used as
a simple counter and doesn't guard object lifetimes. This clearly
differentiates atomic_t usages that guard object lifetimes.

counter_atomic* variables will wrap around to 0 when it overflows and
should not be used to guard resource lifetimes, device usage and
open counts that control state changes, and pm states.

atomic_t variable used to count number of vmci guest devices is used
as just as counter and it doesn't control object lifetimes or state
management. Overflow doesn't appear to be problem for this use.

Convert it to use counter_atomic32.

This conversion doesn't change the overflow wrap around behavior.
