mlxsw_sp stores an array of LAGs. When a port joins a LAG, in case that
this LAG is already in use, we only have to increase the reference counter.
Otherwise, we have to search for an unused LAG ID and configure it in
hardware. When a port leaves a LAG, we have to destroy it only for the last
user. This code can be simplified, for such requirements we usually add
get() and put() functions which create and destroy the object.
Add mlxsw_sp_lag_{get,put}() and use them. These functions take care of
the reference counter and hardware configuration if needed. Change the
reference counter to refcount_t type which catches overflow and underflow
issues.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
