Subject: net, ipv6: convert ip6addrlbl_entry.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
X-Git-Tag: v4.13-rc1~157^2~13^2~2
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=87078f26b6644c2ad8226cf29a7e3a6ef6c74ae2;p=karo-tx-linux.git

net, ipv6: convert ip6addrlbl_entry.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

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.
