aaaand I completely forgot about this before responding to the previous email,
whoops.

OK - so, all of the atomic _check_ hooks are the ones that need ManuallyDrop
since check hooks still allow us to add new objects to the atomic state. And
the AtomicStateComposer drops a reference to the atomic state when dropped,
mainly because in the future it will be possible to acquire an atomic state
composer outside of the atomic check hooks - mainly in situations where the
kernel allocated an atomic state itself and needs to mutate that state. So any
hook creating a composer needs to avoid creating or dropping a reference to
the atomic_state since we're really just passing the composer to the caller to
allow adding new objects.

Hooks that come after the atomic check hooks on the other hand only use
AtomicStateMutator, since they can mutate the state but they can't add any new
objects to the state. And because I don't really see any kind of situation
where we'd want an AtomicStateMutator to be created outside of our hooks, it
doesn't really make sense for that type to acquire/drop references - thus
those hooks skip the ManuallyDrop step.
