Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the cifs tree

Hi all,

After merging the cifs tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from fs/cifs/dns_resolve.c:18:
fs/cifs/cifsglob.h: In function 'cifs_get_tlink':
fs/cifs/cifsglob.h:1169:14: error: passing argument 1 of 'atomic_inc' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
1169 | atomic_inc(&tlink->tl_count);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| |
| refcount_t * {aka struct refcount_struct *}
In file included from include/linux/atomic.h:82,
from include/linux/cpumask.h:13,
from include/linux/smp.h:13,
from include/linux/lockdep.h:14,
from include/linux/spinlock.h:62,
from include/linux/mmzone.h:8,
from include/linux/gfp.h:6,

include/linux/atomic/atomic-instrumented.h:179:22: note: expected 'atomic_t *' but argument is of type 'refcount_t *' {aka 'struct refcount_struct *'}
179 | atomic_inc(atomic_t *v)
| ~~~~~~~~~~^

and lots more similar ...

Caused by commit

ef242296e441 ("fs:cifs: convert from atomic_t to refcount_t on tlink->tl_count")

Please write, review, test (repeat) and, only then, publish. :-(

I have used the cifs tree from next-20211115 for today.
