Details

Summary

In Linux this takes a refcount_t argument but in linuxkpi struct kref
uses an atomic_t for the refcount and code in drm directly uses this
function with a kref so use an atomic_t here.

This may be a silly question, but why don't we fix kref instead to use refcount (now that it exists thanks to you)? Then this shouldn't be a problem here.

TBH I haven't tested if this open a big can of worms or not ...

I'll be happy to get this in and defer the answer to the worms for later maybe with an XXX should kref use refcount_t? next to it as well?

Yeah I'll add something in linux/kref.h too.
