locking/refcount: Consolidate implementations of refcount_t

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit fb041bb7c0a918b95c6889fc965cdc4a75b4c0ca ]

The generic implementation of refcount_t should be good enough for
everybody, so remove ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT and REFCOUNT_FULL entirely,
leaving the generic implementation enabled unconditionally.

An architecture selects this when it has implemented refcount_t
using open coded assembly primitives that provide an optimized
refcount_t implementation, possibly at the expense of some full
refcount state checks of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y.
The refcount overflow check behavior, however, must be retained.
Catching overflows is the primary security concern for protecting
against bugs in reference counts.
config REFCOUNT_FULL
bool "Perform full reference count validation at the expense of speed"
help
Enabling this switches the refcounting infrastructure from a fast
unchecked atomic_t implementation to a fully state checked
implementation, which can be (slightly) slower but provides protections
against various use-after-free conditions that can be used in
security flaw exploits.
