Subject[PATCH] x86/refcount: Implement fast refcount_t handling
This patch ports the x86-specific atomic overflow handling from PaX's
PAX_REFCOUNT to the upstream refcount_t API. This is an updated version
from PaX that eliminates the saturation race condition by resetting the
atomic counter back to the INT_MAX saturation value on both overflow and
underflow. To win a race, a system would have to have INT_MAX threads
simultaneously overflow before the saturation handler runs.

With this, the commonly used inc/dec_and_test usage patterns present
in performance-sensitive areas of the kernel (mm, net, block) will
use the regular inline atomic operations with only a single overflow
test instruction added to the fast path.

+ An architecture selects this when it has implemented refcount_t
+ using primitizes that provide a faster runtime at the expense
+ of some refcount state checks. The refcount overflow condition,
+ however, must be retained. Catching overflows is the primary
+ security concern for protecting against bugs in reference counts.

+config FAST_REFCOUNT
+ bool "Speed up reference counting at the expense of full validation"
+ depends on ARCH_HAS_FAST_REFCOUNT
+ help
+ The regular reference counting infrastructure in the kernel checks
+ many error conditions. If this option is selected, refcounting
+ is made faster using architecture-specific implementions that may
+ only check for reference count overflows (which is the primary
+ way reference counting bugs are turned into security exploits).
