From 25a3720cf45779900246ec17e238fbb674ce4e67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Elena Reshetova Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2017 17:35:01 +0200 Subject: perf evlist: Convert perf_map.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t The 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.
