Previously there was a race that could allow the mctp_dev refcount to hit zero: rcu_read_lock(); mdev = __mctp_dev_get(dev); // mctp_unregister() happens here, mdev->refs hits zero mctp_dev_hold(dev); rcu_read_unlock(); Now we make __mctp_dev_get() take the hold itself. It is safe to test against the zero refcount because __mctp_dev_get() is called holding rcu_read_lock and mctp_dev uses kfree_rcu().
