We might want to use refcount_t instead of atomic_t.  Not a big deal
either way.

This can become:
static void put_ucounts(struct ucounts *ucounts)
{
	unsigned long flags;

        if (atomic_dec_and_lock_irqsave(&ucounts->count, &ucounts_lock, flags)) {
        	hlist_del_init(&ucounts->node);
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&ucounts_lock);
                kfree(ucounts);
        }
}
