[alsa-devel] [PATCH 10/35] perf cgroup: Convert cgroup_sel.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

From: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova at intel.com>

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.
