Thanks, this helps me a lot!

This is a Smatch static analysis thing I'm working on.  It simple enough
to silence the false positive.  I add this line which says that after
set_context_enabled() then ignore the reference counting.

	add_function_param_key_hook("set_context_enabled", &match_ignore,
			0, "$->ref.refcount.refs.counter", NULL);

The heuristic that the check is using is that if some error paths drop
the refcount then all error paths should do it.  So adding the if
statement I suggested would silence the warning (but introduce a bug in
the kernel).
