[PATCH 6/6] refcount: Check bad states with CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION

From: Kees Cook
Date: Mon Mar 06 2017 - 14:11:00 EST


This converts from WARN() to CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() (so that system
builders can choose between WARN and BUG). Additionally moves refcount_t
sanity-check conditionals into regular function flow.

Now when built with CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION, the LKDTM REFCOUNT_*
tests correctly kill offending processes.
