You need to move the #include down the file by about 50 lines so it
lands inside the existing #ifdef __KERNEL__.

All those signed-off-bys and _none_ of you managed to notice that
<linux/kref.h> doesn't exist in the headers we export to userspace,
despite the fact that just running 'make headers_check' would have
shouted at you about it?
