Subject: [PATCH 3/3] xen/blkback: Use refcount_t for refcount
Date: Thu,  8 Aug 2019 21:11:00 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190808131100.24751-1-hslester96@gmail.com> (raw)

Reference counters are preferred to use refcount_t instead of
atomic_t.
This is because the implementation of refcount_t can prevent
overflows and detect possible use-after-free.
So convert atomic_t ref counters to refcount_t.
