Kay, you have got to start testing your patches better! Finding and
fixing refcount errors is _not_ one of my favorite ways to pass the
time. For example, you could see what happens when you insert and
unplug a USB flash disk a few times.
Greg, you'll probably want to just fold this in with Kay's
block-device.patch.
