Looks good with some minor stilistic nipicks:

This can use a goto out_unlock;

And I think a goto out_put_holder and out_free_holder would clean this up
nicely.

.. with this then jumping straight to out_unlock.


We should repost a series with my first 7 patches and your two.  I can do
that, but it might take some time as I just got through (minor) knee
surgery and am still at the hospital, so if you have spare cycles feel
