I worry about depending on refcounts like this, especially when
userspace has an interface that can elevate them. If someone is holding
open /proc/$pid/mounts, this will get elevated and trip the check. This
check is also naturally racy. You check once if there are references,
but there is no locking to keep new references from coming in.
That said, I do like how this for_each_cr_object() stuff looks. It's
pretty clean.
