    percpu: implement generic percpu refcounting · 215e262f
    Kent Overstreet 提交于
    This implements a refcount with similar semantics to
    atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu.
    
    It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the
    percpu counts.  Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call
    percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and
    switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate
    barriers (synchronize_rcu()).
    
    It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only
    returns true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown
    synchronization.
