[PATCH 12/36] net, sched: convert Qdisc.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

From: Elena Reshetova
Date: Tue Jul 04 2017 - 09:05:37 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.
