The issue occurs because a pool can still be held by a caller after its
associated memory region is unregistered. The current implementation frees
the pool even if users still hold references to it (e.g., before uncharge
operations complete).
This patch adds a reference counter to each pool, ensuring that a pool is
only freed when its reference count drops to zero.
