The atomic increment of a reference count:

struct qib_qp *qib_lookup_qpn(struct qib_ibport *ibp, u32 qpn)
{
struct qib_qp *qp = NULL;

rcu_read_lock();
if (unlikely(qpn <= 1)) {
if (qpn == 0)
qp = rcu_dereference(ibp->qp0);
else
qp = rcu_dereference(ibp->qp1);
if (qp)
atomic_inc(&qp->refcount); <--------------------------
} else {
struct qib_ibdev *dev = &ppd_from_ibp(ibp)->dd->verbs_dev;
unsigned n = qpn_hash(dev, qpn);

for (qp = rcu_dereference(dev->qp_table[n]); qp;
qp = rcu_dereference(qp->next))
if (qp->ibqp.qp_num == qpn) {
atomic_inc(&qp->refcount); <---------------------
break;
}
}
rcu_read_unlock();
return qp;
}
