[PATCH 2/2] trace_workqueue: add refcnt to struct cpu_workqueue_stats

From: Li Zefan
Date: Mon Jul 06 2009 - 04:10:49 EST


From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The stat entries can be freed when the stat file is being read.
The worse is, the ptr can be freed immediately after it's returned
from workqueue_stat_start/next().

Add a refcnt to struct cpu_workqueue_stats to avoid use-after-free.
