Frank Pavlic e22dafbcd7 [PATCH] klist: Fix broken kref counting in find functions
The klist reference counting in the find functions that use
klist_iter_init_node is broken.  If the function (for example
driver_find_device) is called with a NULL start object then everything is
fine, the first call to next_device()/klist_next increases the ref-count of
the first node on the list and does nothing for the start object which is
NULL.

If they are called with a valid start object then klist_next will decrement
the ref-count for the start object but nobody has incremented it.  Logical
place to fix this would be klist_iter_init_node because the function puts a
reference of the object into the klist_iter struct.

/*
* klist.c - Routines for manipulating klists.
*
*
* This klist interface provides a couple of structures that wrap around
* struct list_head to provide explicit list "head" (struct klist) and
* list "node" (struct klist_node) objects. For struct klist, a spinlock
* is included that protects access to the actual list itself. struct
* klist_node provides a pointer to the klist that owns it and a kref
* reference count that indicates the number of current users of that node
* in the list.
*
* The entire point is to provide an interface for iterating over a list
* that is safe and allows for modification of the list during the
* iteration (e.g. insertion and removal), including modification of the
* current node on the list.
*
* It works using a 3rd object type - struct klist_iter - that is declared
* and initialized before an iteration. klist_next() is used to acquire the
* next element in the list. It returns NULL if there are no more items.
* Internally, that routine takes the klist's lock, decrements the reference
* count of the previous klist_node and increments the count of the next
* klist_node. It then drops the lock and returns.
*
* There are primitives for adding and removing nodes to/from a klist.
* When deleting, klist_del() will simply decrement the reference count.
* Only when the count goes to 0 is the node removed from the list.
* klist_remove() will try to delete the node from the list and block
* until it is actually removed. This is useful for objects (like devices)
* that have been removed from the system and must be freed (but must wait
* until all accessors have finished).
