I'm wondering if we really need the lock in there. We never unset or 
change the parent. It gets detached, but we're not checking for that. 
The node could get freed, but the lock is not for that, refcounts are.

count parents? Huh? Isn't it always 1?

I think you could just move the spinlock into __of_attach_node(). The 
only other caller looks like this.
