From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> commit a8772fad0172aeae339144598b809fd8d4823331 upstream. syzbot is reporting that there is a race at tomoyo_stat_update() [1]. Although it is acceptable to fail to track exact number of times policy was updated, convert to atomic_t because this is not a hot path.
