Doing atomic_dec() and then separate atomic_read() leaves small race
window leading to double free in stratix10_svc_remove_async_client():

CPU 0                               CPU 1
=====                               =====
refcount == 2

stratix10_svc_remove_async_client() stratix10_svc_remove_async_client()
atomic_dec(&refcount);
                                    atomic_dec(&refcount);
if (atomic_read(&refcount) == 0)
  kfree(achan);
                                    if (atomic_read(&refcount) == 0)
                                      kfree(achan); // double free
