Subject: drivers, char: convert vma_data.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7d88d24c5a2b66b02770e2776fce72b5fd70193;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

drivers, char: convert vma_data.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.
