This is completely unnecessary, see below.

You can just use MINOR(heap->heap_devt) here instead.

This is usually considered a bad idea since it makes the kref approach 
superfluous.

There are multiple possibilities how handle this, the most common one is 
to use kref_get_unless_zero() in your list traversal code and ignore the 
entry when that fails.

Alternatively you could use kref_put_mutex() instead. This gives you the 
same functionality as this here, but as far as I know it's normally only 
used in a couple of special cases.

Please don't add kerneldoc to the definition, add it to the 
implementation of the function.
