Comment that you have added should be placed way below, here it is misleading.

Comment above makes more sense here, likely combined with the one just below.

Thanks for splitting this patch out of the other, change itself is easier 
to follow now. Code (modulo comments) is correct, you could add my Reviewed-by
after comment fix.

Side note: ops (rate_{leaf|node}_parent_set) lack documentation. There is also 
not much usage of them as of now, so maybe we could extend them to actually do
refcount_inc + refcount_dec (if applicable) + set pointers.
OTOH: As of now those are more of "on-event" callbacks, not "do-something", 
what is further confirmed in name (word "set" on the end, not begining).
