      KVM: kill file->f_count abuse in kvm · 66c0b394

      Use kvm own refcounting instead of playing with ->filp->f_count.
      That will allow to get rid of a lot of crap in anon_inode_getfd() and
      kill a race in kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vm() (file might have been closed
      immediately by another thread, so ->filp might point to already freed
      struct file when we get around to setting it).
