You might manage to request reference to the 'next'
item while holding the lock. So maybe a loop that has:

error = ...
if (error) {
rpc_release_client(clnt);
break;
}
spin_lock(&sn->rpc_client_lock);
next_clnt = list_next(clnt);
if (next_clnt)
atomic_inc(&next_clnt->cl_count);
spin_unlock(&sn->rpc_client_lock);
rpc_release_client(clnt);
clnt = next_clnt;
} while (clnt != NULL);
