The kvm_get_kvm is done within kvm_ioctl_create_device, which is called from ioctl; the last reference cannot disappear inside a ioctl, because: 1) kvm_ioctl is called from vfs_ioctl, which does fdget and holds the fd reference until after kvm_vm_ioctl returns 2) the file descriptor holds one reference to the struct kvm*, and this reference is not released until kvm_vm_release is called by the last fput (which could be fdput's call to fput if the process has exited in the meanwhile) 3) for completeness, in case anon_inode_getfd fails, put_unused_fd will not invoke the file descriptor's ->release callback (in this case kvm_device_release).
