I've applied this, thanks, it looks good.

One thing I noticed, though, is that this landed in the core-api manual,
while the refcount_t documentation is in the driver-api manual.  The
cross-references work just fine and such, but this still doesn't seem quite
right.  Probably what should be done is to have all the refcount_t
material in core-api; I may do that if I get a moment.

Thanks,
