It's one persons opinion.  I tend to disagree with lots of it.  iref
is a good new helper for filesystems to use, but for the unlocked
read it's reather pointless.  iref_locked is even more pointless -
it's only used in core fs code (fs/inode.c, fs/fs-writeback.c,
fs/drop_caches.c, fs/notify/inode_mark.c and fs/quota/dquot.c) and
an opencoded increment would be a lot more readable.
