net: Convert atomic_t net::count to refcount_t
Since net could be obtained from RCU lists, and there is a race with net destruction, the patch converts net::count to refcount_t. This provides sanity checks for the cases of incrementing counter of already dead net, when maybe_get_net() has to used instead of get_net(). Drivers: allyesconfig and allmodconfig are OK.
