Found it.  It was a stupid mistake.  I made the get_sb function return 
the same superblock when it was still get_sb_nodev.  When I switched it 
to the proper get_sb_single I forgot to remove the code that returned 
the old sb so it wasn't calling get_sb_single to increase the sb's usage 
count.  Doh!
