Oh right, thanks. I can however do something like
...
spin_lock(&pool->lock);
if (kref_put(&zhdr->refcount, release_z3fold_page)) {
atomic64_dec(&pool->pages_nr);
spin_unlock(&pool->lock);
return 0;
}
}
/* add to beginning of LRU */
list_add(&page->lru, &pool->lru);
}
...
provided that I take the lock for the headless case above. That will
work won't it?
