Is this counter global to the device? No locking or atomicity needed?

Can the allocation run from process context in parallel with the NAPI
that uses the pool? It's uncommon for drivers to do that. If not you
can set the NAPI pointer here and get lock-free recycling.

Could you make sure to wrap the new code at 80 chars?

./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --max-line-length=80
