ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of:

 # perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread".

The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without
dropping the refcount.

This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased whenever
a refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.
