Did you want to use krefs for the refcounting?
We will add it to our to do list and submit a patch later on.
For right now we will like to stick to it as kref will require
additional testing.
Please use krefs from the start. Other drivers like beiscsi have had to
switch from its own refcount code to krefs, and have had to retest their
patchsets. You have to change your code in some other patches and maybe
this one too, so you have to retest everything either way.
