[PATCH 07/16] drivers, net, mlx5: convert fs_node.refcount from atomic_t to refcount_t

Tue Mar 28 01:56:34 PDT 2017


refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.
