[PATCH 02/17] net: convert neighbour.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

From: Elena Reshetova
Date: Wed Jun 28 2017 - 08:01:11 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.
