Having looked at this more completely, I think we should drop this
function.

Just always do decr, then have a simple function to compact the list
after the decr:

struct arm_smmu_invs *arm_smmu_invs_cleanup(struct arm_smmu_invs *invs,
					    size_t to_del)
{
	struct arm_smmu_invs *new_invs;
	size_t i, j;

	if (WARN_ON(invs->num_invs < to_del))
		return NULL;

	new_invs = arm_smmu_invs_alloc(invs->num_invs - to_del);
	if (IS_ERR(new_invs))
		return NULL;

	for (i = 0, j = 0; i != invs->num_invs; i++) {
		if (!refcount_read(&invs->inv[i].users))
			continue;
		new_invs->inv[j] = invs->inv[i];
		j++;
	}
	return new_invs;
}

If this returns NULL then just leave the list alone, it is OK to sit
there with the 0 users left behind.

No need for the complex _del function and the _decr function..

This also means the memory doesn't need to be preallocated and it
significantly simplifies alot of the logic.
