Right,
Something like this should be good enuf right?
if (atomic_read(&uprobe->ref) == 1) {
synchronize_sched();
spin_lock_irqsave(&treelock, flags);
rb_erase(&uprobe->rb_node, &uprobes_tree);
spin_lock_irqrestore(&treelock, flags);
iput(uprobe->inode);
}

Hopefully this time it goes to the right list.
