Actually, I also have a little concern with "goto" in non-error path. But
as Sean's suggestion, use "goto" can avoid a duplicate mutex release, you
know.

@Sean, if you don't have concern with adding a mutex release below, I will
update it in V3.

        ++item->refcount;
        mutex_unlock(&item->mutex);
        return 0;

out_err:
        kfree(ref->object);
        ref->object = NULL;
out:
        mutex_unlock(&item->mutex);
        return ret;
