Subject: liveupdate: initialize incoming FLB state before finish
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 12:46:08 +0800

luo_flb_file_finish_one() decremented incoming.count before making sure
that the incoming FLB state had been materialized.  If no earlier incoming
retrieval had populated that state, the first decrement ran from zero and
skipped the last-user finish path.

Initialize the incoming FLB state before the first decrement so finish
uses the serialized refcount instead of an uninitialized value.
