Oh right, thanks. I can however do something like
...
                        spin_lock(&pool->lock);
                        if (kref_put(&zhdr->refcount, release_z3fold_page)) {
                                atomic64_dec(&pool->pages_nr);
                                spin_unlock(&pool->lock);
                                return 0;
                        }
                }

                /* add to beginning of LRU */
                list_add(&page->lru, &pool->lru);
        }
...

provided that I take the lock for the headless case above. That will
work won't it?
