This should read:
if (!atomic_add_unless(&ses->se_ref, -1, 1) && is_session_dead(ses))

                free_session(ses);

Hi, I'm not sure if I have this correctly; But both before and after the patch free_session gets called when se_ref count was 1, shouldn't this have changed with the +1 scheme?

Also, since the !atomic_add_unless doesn't actually decrement when at 1, doesn't this leave the se_ref as 1 when it's destroyed? The function seems to always be locked, so perhaps this doesn't matter, but still seems a bit risky.

Thanks,
