[PATCH 8/9] net, ipv4: convert cipso_v4_doi.refcount from atomic_t to refcount_t

From: Elena Reshetova
Date: Tue Jul 04 2017 - 02:35:48 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.
