- * This pointer is required, and it is not acceptable to pass kfree
- * in as this function.
- * @lock: lock to take in release case

- * Behaves identical to kref_put with one exception. If the reference count
- * drops to zero, the lock will be taken atomically wrt dropping the reference
- * count. The release function has to call spin_unlock() without _irqrestore.
