On resource group (control as well as monitoring) creation via a mkdir an extra kernfs_node reference is obtained to ensure that the rdtgroup structure remains accessible for the rdtgroup_kn_unlock() calls where it is removed on deletion. The kernfs_node reference count is dropped by kernfs_put() in rdtgroup_kn_unlock(). With the above explaining the need for one kernfs_get()/kernfs_put() pair in resctrl there are more places where a kernfs_node reference is obtained without a corresponding release. The excessive amount of reference count on kernfs nodes will never be dropped to 0 and the kernfs nodes will never be freed in the call paths of rmdir and umount. It leads to reference count leak and kernfs_node_cache memory leak. Remove the superfluous kernfs_get() calls and expand the existing comments surrounding the remaining kernfs_get()/kernfs_put() pair that remains in use. Superfluous kernfs_get() calls are removed from two areas: (1) In call paths of mount and mkdir, when kernfs nodes for "info", "mon_groups" and "mon_data" directories and sub-directories are created, the reference count of newly created kernfs node is set to 1. But after kernfs_create_dir() returns, superfluous kernfs_get() are called to take an additional reference. (2) kernfs_get() calls in rmdir call paths.
