/**
 * atomic_inc_not_zero_hint - increment if not null
 * @v: pointer of type atomic_t
 * @hint: probable value of the atomic before the increment
 *
 * This version of atomic_inc_not_zero() gives a hint of probable
 * value of the atomic. This helps processor to not read the memory
 * before doing the atomic read/modify/write cycle, lowering
 * number of bus transactions on some arches.
 *
 * Returns: 0 if increment was not done, 1 otherwise.
