Subject: [PATCH 09/11] IMA: drop refcnt from ima_iint_cache since it isn't
needed
Since finding a struct ima_iint_cache requires a valid struct inode, and the
struct ima_iint_cache is supposed to have the same lifetime as a struct inode
(technically they die together but don't need to be created at the same time)
we don't have to worry about the ima_iint_cache outliving or dieing before the
inode. So the refcnt isn't useful. Just get rid of it and free the structure
when the inode is freed.
