This patch series is a result of discussion at the refcount_t BOF
the Linux Plumbers Conference. In this discussion, we identified
a need for looking closely and investigating atomic_t usages in
the kernel when it is used strictly as a counter without it
controlling object lifetimes and state changes.

BTW, I realized the KSPP issue tracker hadn't broken this task out of
the refcount_t conversion issue[1] into a separate issue, so I've created
it now: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/106


Cool. Thanks.
