Thanks again on the feedback, I have had some other distractions
recently, so just getting around to these details again now.

The trouble w/ the suggestion here, if we increment in the check, then
if we trip on any of the other error paths, the cnt value will be
wrong when we return (and doing the extra decrementing in the error
paths feels as ugly as just doing the increment at the end of the
success paths)

Yea, I think I was mimicing some of the helpers like INIT_LIST_HEAD()
But sounds good. I can uninline it.

Yea, its a bit ugly but I worry the caller might forget?

Thanks again for the feedback!
