Subject: [PATCH] locking/refcounts: Remove refcount_sub() extern
Date: Sat, 1 Jul 2017 11:01:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170701180129.GA17405@beast> (raw)

CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL (correctly) did not provide a refcount_sub(), which
should not be part of proper refcount design patterns. This removes the
erroneous extern (and the later non-FULL accidental implementation).

Fixes: 29dee3c03abc ("locking/refcounts: Out-of-line everything")
Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

This should be applied to locking/core for -next, please.
