From 2f35c41f58a978dfa44ffa102249d556caa99eeb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2014 09:29:29 +1030 Subject: module: Replace module_ref with atomic_t refcnt Replace module_ref per-cpu complex reference counter with an atomic_t simple refcnt. This is for code simplification.
