Subject: [PATCH 3/7 net-2.6.26] [TIPC]: Cleanup of TIPC reference table code

This patch is a largely cosmetic cleanup of the TIPC reference
table code.  Variable naming has been made more consistent,
useless #includes have been eliminated, and the object reference
field in each table entry is no longer implemented using an
unnecessary structure union.  In addition, error checking has
been enhanced to detect accidental access to reference table
entries that are on the free list.
