[v7,15/19] batman-adv: Rename batadv_nc_path *_free_ref function to *_put
Commit Message
The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the
*_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put
makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection
to the *_get functions.
Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
---
v7:
- removed patches which are now applied in the branch master
- split *_get -> *_put rename patches into smaller patches only renaming single
functions
v6:
- removed patches which are now applied in the branch next
- rebased remaining patches on the patch
"batman-adv: Avoid recursive call_rcu for batadv_nc_node" which was
modified by Marek while he applied the patches (this unfortunately made
some of the remaining patches slightly harder to apply)
v5:
- add hack which allows to compile against stable kernel like 3.2.44 which
also added the kref_get_unless_zero function
v4:
- fix function names in commit messages
- fix double whitespace in batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_release kerneldoc
- add extra patch for batadv_claim_free_ref kerneldoc fix
- change the phrase "free it" in all *_free_ref/*_put functions to "release it"
v3:
- update copyright year
v2:
- split patchset into fixes and kref migration to make it easier when the
decision is made where each patch will be applied
