lockref: uninline lockref helper functions
They aren't very good to inline, since they already call external functions (the spinlock code), and we're going to create rather more complicated versions of them that can do the reference count updates locklessly. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
