Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.26 5/5][LIB]: Forget the pcounter abstraction.

It was used by proto.inuse only. Now it's reworked and we can
drop the pcounter, all the more so this was intended to be done.

Not sure whether this should go via netdev tree, but as far as
I remember it was added via this one...
