Yup, that's one side of the coin: struct_mutex guarantees that the weak
reference we have through mm.link doesn't result in an untimely demise of
the underlying object. This is easy to fix with a kref_get_unless_zero
while still holding the spinlock (and proceeding to the next obj if we
cannot get a full reference) in the shrinker.

But I think we also rely on struct_mutex making sure that no one else can
move the object off the mm.link list, so that list_del is always
meaningful. Otherwise someone might sneak in between the point where we
drop the spinlock and grab the backing storage lock and wreak some good
havoc. That's the part I'm not sure about though ...
