Subject: [RFC -next 0/2] refcount: add tracking infrastructure

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

RFC only, I yet have to convert some dev_put()/dev_hold() to show
how this works.

I am posting this because Jakub is working on same issue.

Eric Dumazet (2):
  lib: add reference counting infrastructure
  net: add dev_hold_track() and dev_put_track() helpers
