[PATCH] kref: avoid an atomic operation in kref_put()

Avoid an atomic operation in kref_put() when the last reference is
dropped. On most platforms, atomic_read() is a plan read of the counter
and involves no atomic at all.

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!
