Exactly this was the concern when introducing a behavior change in a 
sensitive area of the code
to silence lockdep...

I'm assuming that the bad dereference is:
         synchronize_srcu(&ns->ctrl->srcu);

btw, looking at the code again, I'm assuming that synchronizing srcu in 
every ns remove
slows down batch removal of many namespaces greatly...
