This corresponds to the NT syscall NtCreateSemaphore().

Semaphores are one of three types of object to be implemented in this driver,
the others being mutexes and events.

An NT semaphore contains a 32-bit counter, and is signaled and can be acquired
when the counter is nonzero. The counter has a maximum value which is specified
at creation time. The initial value of the semaphore is also specified at
creation time. There are no restrictions on the maximum and initial value.

Each object is exposed as an file, to which any number of fds may be opened.
When all fds are closed, the object is deleted.

No reference counting is needed for your ntsync_device?  Or are you
relying on the reference counting of struct file here?

You pass around pointers to this structure, and save it off into other
structures, how do you know it is "safe" to do so?

If the reference count is driven by struct file, that's fine, and great,
otherwise you end up with two different reference counts and keeping
them in sync is impossible.

But as it wasn't obvious, a comment somewhere here would be helpful for
reviewing and figuring out how this all works in 4 years when someone
has to touch it again.
