Ick, no, that's not ok. "delay release" is a debugging tool, there is
nothing keeping userspace from grabbing a reference to your kobject and
holding on to it to emulate this "delay" test.
So even if you think the kernel is not going to do this, remember, you
have no control over it. Reference counted objects are done this way
for a reason, you really do not know who has a reference and you really
do not care.
You are just papering over the real issue here, see my previous email
for how to start working on resolving it.
