nbl allocated in nfsd4_lock can be released by a several ways: directly in nfsd4_lock(), via nfs4_laundromat(), via another nfs command RELEASE_LOCKOWNER or via nfsd4_callback. This structure should be refcounted to be used and released correctly in all these cases. Refcount is initialized to 1 during allocation and is incremented when nbl is added into nbl_list/nbl_lru lists. Usually nbl is linked into both lists together, so only one refcount is used for both lists. However nfsd4_lock() should keep in mind that nbl can be present in one of lists only. This can happen if nbl was handled already by nfs4_laundromat/nfsd4_callback/etc. Refcount is decremented if vfs_lock_file() returns FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED, because nbl can be handled already by nfs4_laundromat/nfsd4_callback/etc. Refcount is not changed in find_blocked_lock() because of it reuses counter released after removing nbl from lists.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
