On most platforms, there exists this ifdef:
#define atomic_inc_not_zero(v) atomic_add_unless((v), 1, 0)
This makes this patch functionally useless. However, on PPC, there is
actually an explicit definition of atomic_inc_not_zero with its own
assembly that is slightly more optimized than atomic_add_unless. So,
this patch changes kref to use atomic_inc_not_zero instead, for PPC and
any future platforms that might provide an explicit implementation.
This also puts this usage of kref more in line with a verbatim reading
of the examples in Paul McKenney's paper [1] in the section titled "2.4
Atomic Counting With Check and Release Memory Barrier", which uses
atomic_inc_not_zero.
