[PATCH 04/18] net, vxlan: convert vxlan_sock.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

From: Elena Reshetova
Date: Fri Mar 17 2017 - 07:19:16 EST


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.
