I would suggest a small change in the function names here.  I think
the names closid_free and closid_put should be swapped. As I
understand, under the current naming scheme, the opposite of
closid_alloc() is closid_put() and the opposite of closid_get() is
closid_free().  This is not the normal way these names are paired.
Typically, alloc and free go as a pair and get and put go as a pair.
