The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit 727e0cd59e7be176edc7728cef883f912a29168f Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Sat Jan 16 10:29:46 2016 +0100
batman-adv: Convert batadv_nc_path to kref
batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.
