[PATCH] kref: make kref_put return if this was the last put call.

This is needed for the upcoming klist code from Pat. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Use "ifdef" rather than "if" to test for KERNEL

Both work, but the latter can cause warnings in user space from compilers that don't like using undefined identifiers in preprocessor expressions (quite reasonable). Pointed out by Randy Dunlap.

Allow the compiler to notice "constant" header file.

Both gcc and sparse will speed up tokenization by noticing when a header file is protected by the standard preprocessor #ifndef .. #endif exclusion. However, that requires that the headers actually _use_ that standard exclusion. Some did their own little broken dance.

KREF: make kref_get() return void as it makes sense to do so.

Thanks to Kiran for bugging me to do this. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

KREF: shrink the size of struct kref down to just a single atomic_t

This was based on a patch from Kiran, but tweaked further by me. Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kref: add kref structure to kernel tree.

Based on the kobject structure, but much smaller and simpler to use.
