H A D | cred.h | f6a7ce5a Fri Dec 15 14:24:10 CST 2023 Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> cred: switch to using atomic_long_t
commit f8fa5d76925991976b3e7076f9d1052515ec1fca upstream.
There are multiple ways to grab references to credentials, and the only protection we have against overflowing it is the memory required to do so.
With memory sizes only moving in one direction, let's bump the reference count to 64-bit and move it outside the realm of feasibly overflowing.
