This series, for the rest of network subsystem components, replaces atomic_t reference counters with the new refcount_t type and API (see include/linux/refcount.h). By doing this we prevent intentional or accidental underflows or overflows that can led to use-after-free vulnerabilities. The patches are fully independent and can be cherry-picked separately. Since we convert all kernel subsystems in the same fashion, resulting in about 300 patches, we have to group them for sending at least in some fashion to be manageable. Please excuse the long cc list. If there are no objections to the patches, please merge them via respective trees.
