For cpu->memory, there's the "object_ref(OBJECT(cpu->memory))" in
cpu_exec_initfn().

But this case doesn't need to increase ref count like cpu->memory, since
memory_region_ref() provides protection and it's enough.

This is the difference.

So it sounds like now it's more necessary to clarify this, no?
