Also I think it would be nice to use the same accounting structure
for regular counters and these counters regarding the accounting
part. I'm not saying we should necessarily use the nft_counter
variant with a seqlock, but whatever reasoning we use to decide
for one variant should fully apply to the other as well.
The nft_acct would then simply be a container with a list_head,
a use counter and an embedded nft counter structure.
