Looks plausible, but what did you do to verify that the structures
were in fact being freed?  See below for more detail.

Good!  You need this one to prevent the counter prematurely reaching zero.

But what did you do to verify that the counter actually reaches zero?

The bit about checking that the counter reaches zero is underscored by the
apparent initialization to the value 1.
