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.

    Why do it twice?

Sorry I just realized that I had unsquashed changes when I sent this patch, so this is still the old version. 
Will send a new one now. 

Best Regards,
Elena.
