This code looks surprising, although admittedly my kobj understanding
is cursory at best. So CCing Greg to keep me honest.

kobj itself is a refcounting mechanism. Adding another refcount and
then releasing the reference from .release method of kobject looks like
a pointless duplication.

Just free the object from the .release method. Why not?
