So, this part seems wrong. The function is called percpu_ref_reinit() - the refcnt is expected to be in its initial state with just the base ref once this function returns. If you're removing the restriction onBut the comment says that 'Re-initialize @ref so that it's in the same state as when it finished', and this invariant isn't changed with this patch.
The comment goes "when perpcu_ref_init() finished". The function is called re _init_. It should put the ref in the initial state, right? Thanks. -- tejun
