+ * Initially, a percpu refcount is just a set of percpu counters. Initially, we
+ * don't try to detect the ref hitting 0 - which means that get/put can just
+ * increment or decrement the local counter. Note that the counter on a
+ * particular cpu can (and will) wrap - this is fine, when we go to shutdown the
+ * percpu counters will all sum to the correct value
+ *
+ * (More precisely: because moduler arithmatic is commutative the sum of all the
+ * pcpu_count vars will be equal to what it would have been if all the gets and
+ * puts were done to a single integer, even if some of the percpu integers
+ * overflow or underflow).
+ *
+ * The real trick to implementing percpu refcounts is shutdown. We can't detect
+ * the ref hitting 0 on every put - this would require global synchronization
+ * and defeat the whole purpose of using percpu refs.
+ *
+ * What we do is require the user to keep track of the initial refcount; we know
+ * the ref can't hit 0 before the user drops the initial ref, so as long as we
+ * convert to non percpu mode before the initial ref is dropped everything
+ * works.
+ *
+ * Converting to non percpu mode is done with some RCUish stuff in
+ * percpu_ref_kill. Additionally, we need a bias value so that the atomic_t
+ * can't hit 0 before we've added up all the percpu refs.
