I will take a look. Though if you're confident that this logic protects
any uaf, that makes sense to me.

However as I mentioned this is not what the crash was about (I mentioned
the UAF in passing). The GPF seems to be about deleting the _next_
pointer while iterating over all mddevs. The mddev_get on the
current item is not going to help with this.
