commit 8427a98ac717dafb6d89412cedde3b983a05df46 Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Fri Jul 15 17:39:31 2016 +0200
batman-adv: Place kref_get for nc_path near use
It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right before the place which requires the reference and in the same function helps to avoid accidental problems causedy incorrect reference counting.
