fs, nilfs: convert nilfs_root.count from atomic_t to refcount_t
atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters
with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t
type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows.
This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to
use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable nilfs_root.count is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
