      secretmem: Prevent secretmem_users from wrapping to zero · cb685432
      Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) authored
      Commit 11086054 ("mm/secretmem: use refcount_t instead of atomic_t")
      attempted to fix the problem of secretmem_users wrapping to zero and
      allowing suspend once again.
      
      But it was reverted in commit 87066fdd ("Revert 'mm/secretmem: use
      refcount_t instead of atomic_t'") because of the problems it caused - a
      refcount_t was not semantically the right type to use.
      
      Instead prevent secretmem_users from wrapping to zero by forbidding new
      users if the number of users has wrapped from positive to negative.
      This stops a long way short of reaching the necessary 4 billion users
      where it wraps to zero again, so there's no need to be clever with
      special anti-wrap types or checking the return value from atomic_inc().
