 * Percpu refcounts:
 * (C) 2012 Google, Inc.
 * Author: Kent Overstreet <[email protected]>
 *
 * This implements a refcount with similar semantics to atomic_t - atomic_inc(),
 * atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu.
 *
 * There's one important difference between percpu refs and normal atomic_t
 * refcounts; you have to keep track of your initial refcount, and then when you
 * start shutting down you call percpu_ref_kill() _before_ dropping the initial
 * refcount.
 *
 * The refcount will have a range of 0 to ((1U << 31) - 1), i.e. one bit less
 * than an atomic_t - this is because of the way shutdown works, see
 * percpu_ref_kill()/PERCPU_COUNT_BIAS.
 *
 * Before you call percpu_ref_kill(), percpu_ref_put() does not check for the
 * refcount hitting 0 - it can't, if it was in percpu mode. percpu_ref_kill()
 * puts the ref back in single atomic_t mode, collecting the per cpu refs and
 * issuing the appropriate barriers, and then marks the ref as shutting down so
 * that percpu_ref_put() will check for the ref hitting 0.  After it returns,
 * it's safe to drop the initial ref.
 *
 * USAGE:
 *
 * See fs/aio.c for some example usage; it's used there for struct kioctx, which
 * is created when userspaces calls io_setup(), and destroyed when userspace
 * calls io_destroy() or the process exits.
 *
 * In the aio code, kill_ioctx() is called when we wish to destroy a kioctx; it
 * removes the kioctx from the proccess's table of kioctxs and kills percpu_ref.
 * After that, there can't be any new users of the kioctx (from lookup_ioctx())
 * and it's then safe to drop the initial ref with percpu_ref_put().
 *
 * Note that the free path, free_ioctx(), needs to go through explicit call_rcu()
 * to synchronize with RCU protected lookup_ioctx().  percpu_ref operations don't
 * imply RCU grace periods of any kind and if a user wants to combine percpu_ref
 * with RCU protection, it must be done explicitly.
 *
 * Code that does a two stage shutdown like this often needs some kind of
 * explicit synchronization to ensure the initial refcount can only be dropped
 * once - percpu_ref_kill() does this for you, it returns true once and false if
 * someone else already called it. The aio code uses it this way, but it's not
 * necessary if the code has some other mechanism to synchronize teardown.
 * around.
