Willem's comment applies here too.  The driver needs to be modified to
count from 1 to use refcount_t.

Thanks.
I have revised this problem but find the other two refcounts -
cnic_dev::ref_count
and cnic_sock::ref_count have no set.
I am not sure where to initialize them to 1.

Besides, should ulp_ops->ref_count be set to 0 when unregistered?
