From: Ido Schimmel Date: Sat, 3 Dec 2016 15:44:59 +0000 (+0100) Subject: ipv4: fib: Add fib_info_hold() helper X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1c677b3d2828a84e0360e1a07d1204531540dc03;p=linux-beck.git ipv4: fib: Add fib_info_hold() helper As explained in the previous commit, modules are going to need to take a reference on fib info and then drop it using fib_info_put(). Add the fib_info_hold() helper to make the code more readable and also symmetric with fib_info_put().
