Subject: [RFC 2/2] kref: introduce kref_put_lockptr() and use lockptr

This patch switches to make kref_put_lock() more locktype independend by
introducing kref_put_lockptr() and using refcount_dec_and_lockptr(). The
user can now pass a lockptr and do the specific locktype operation by
parameters. The current kref_put_mutex() and kref_put_lock() has been
adapted to use the new kref_put_lockptr() implementation for existing
users.
