err:
This is a golden oldie! We can shave a couple of locked instructions for about 10% of the per-object overhead by not taking an extra kref whilst reserving objects for an execbuf. Due to lock management this is safe, as we cannot lose the original object reference without the lock. Equally, because this relies on the heavy BKL^W struct_mutex, it is also likely to be only a temporary optimisation until we have fine grained locking. (That's what we said 5 years ago, so there's probably another 10 years before we get around to finer grained locking!)
