Subject: [PATCH 4.5 037/124] qlcnic: Remove unnecessary usage of atomic_t

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rajesh Borundia <rajesh.borundia@...gic.com>

[ Upstream commit 5bf93251cee1fb66141d1d2eaff86e04a9397bdf ]

o atomic_t usage is incorrect as we are not implementing
any atomicity.
