The 'filter_cnt' counter is used to control a Qdisc class lifetime. Each filter referecing this class by its id will eventually increment/decrement this counter in their respective 'add/update/delete' routines. As these operations are always serialized under rtnl lock, we don't need an atomic type like 'refcount_t'. It also means that we lose the overflow/underflow checks already present in refcount_t, which are valuable to hunt down bugs where the unsigned counter wraps around as it aids automated tools like syzkaller to scream in such situations. Wrap the open coded increment/decrement into helper functions and add overflow checks to the operations.
