Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

/*
* This is an implementation of the notion of "decrement a
* reference count, and return locked if it decremented to zero".
*
* This implementation can be used on any architecture that
* has a cmpxchg, and where atomic->value is an int holding
* the value of the atomic (i.e. the high bits aren't used
* for a lock or anything like that).
*
* N.B. ATOMIC_DEC_AND_LOCK gets defined in include/linux/spinlock.h
* if spinlocks are empty and thus atomic_dec_and_lock is defined
* to be atomic_dec_and_test - in that case we don't need it
* defined here as well.
