locking/atomic, kref: Add kref_read()

Kills two anti-patterns: atomic_read(&kref->refcount) kref->refcount.counter Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul E.
