OK, that should work and be somewhat cleaner than what we have today.
Please see notes below...

This is awkward.
If we're already doing this overhaul the right thing to do
is separate out listing/unlisting of the layout on the clp list
so that the lo is added to the clp list when its lo->segs list
goes from empty to not empty (and in this case get_layout can be called
as you did as there's a reference from the clp to the lo)
and when its segs list empties it should be unlisted and
put_layout(), then if its refcount will go back to 0
it can be destroyed.

In this case I'd like to add a
		WARN_ON(!list_empty(&lo->segs))
to make sure that the refcounting agrees with the list manipulation.

Thanks!
