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.

After reading up on this thread, it looks like various subsystem
maintainers are now picking these atomic_t -> refcount_t conversions..

That said, applied to target-pending/for-next and will plan to include
for v4.12-rc1 merge window.

Thanks!
