It seems better to dereference master before decrementing the reference
count rather than afterwards.
The problem was found using the following semantic match:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
expression n,E;
identifier fld;
iterator I;
statement S;
@@
* of_node_put(n)
... when != n = E
when != I(n,...) S
* n->fld
// </smpl>

Ack.
No big deal, tho, those nodes are never going to go away :-)
Cheers,
