Commit Message

In many cases, it would be useful to be able to use the full
sanity-checked refcount helpers regardless of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL, as
this would help to avoid duplicate warnings where callers try to
sanity-check refcount manipulation.

This patch refactors things such that the full refcount helpers were
always built, as refcount_${op}_checked(), such that they can be used
regardless of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL. This will allow code which *always*
wants a checked refcount to opt-in, avoiding the need to duplicate the
logic for warnings.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Dave pointed out that it would be useful to be able to opt-in to full checks
regardless of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL, so that we can simplify callsites where we
always want checks. I've spotted a few of these in code which is still awaiting
conversion.

I'm assuming that the atomics group is intended to own the refcount code, even
though this isn't currently the case in MAINTAINERS.

The kbuild test robot also just spotted this; I've fixed tht up locally
and pushed it out to my atomics/refcount-checked branch.

Thanks for the spot!

Yeah, I need to go through the cocci output -- Elena had several
outstanding patches that never got picked up.

That's how it has landed in the past, yes, but if there is a
dependency on these for code that will use it, maybe it should go that
way?

The motivation was code like

	WARN_ON(refcount_read(&ref));
	if (refcount_dec_and_test(&ref)) { ... }

so the warning is redundant for REFCOUNT_FULL, but I'm going to use the
_checked versions everywhere the performance of refcounts is not
critical.

That sounds reasonable to me. I was just wanted to be clear as to why I'd Cc'd
the atomics maintainers. :)

I'll spin a v2 with the fixup Andrea noted.

Please don't think that your implementations were bad; I just already had an

If you will have conversion patches, do you want to pick this up as the start
of a series?

The patches where I'd use the enhanced refcounts are nice-to-have and I
don't have an ETA so it would be better if the patch gets merged
independently. Thanks.
