That comment doesn't seem right, should that be: ref != 0 ?

Also; would it not be much clearer to call this: nr_blocked, or waiters
or something along those lines, because that is what it appears to be.

Handle what!? That comment is near empty.

So you set the xlock's generation only once, to the oldest blocking-on
relation, which makes sense, you want to be able to related to all
historical locks since.

You terminate with graph_lock() held.

Also, I think you can do the atomic_read() outside of graph lock, to
avoid taking graph_lock when its 0.
