+/// A refcounted object that is known to have a refcount of 1.
+///
+/// It is mutable and can be converted to an [`Arc`] so that it can be shared.
+///
+/// # Invariants
+///
+/// `inner` always has a reference count of 1.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// In the following example, we make changes to the inner object before turning it into an
+/// `Arc<Test>` object (after which point, it cannot be mutated directly). Note that `x.into()`
+/// cannot fail.
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::sync::{Arc, UniqueArc};
+///
+/// struct Example {
+/// a: u32,
+/// b: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// fn test() -> Result<Arc<Example>> {
+/// let mut x = UniqueArc::try_new(Example { a: 10, b: 20 })?;
+/// x.a += 1;
+/// x.b += 1;
+/// Ok(x.into())
+/// }
+///
+/// # test().unwrap();
+/// ```
+///
+/// In the following example we first allocate memory for a ref-counted `Example` but we don't
+/// initialise it on allocation. We do initialise it later with a call to [`UniqueArc::write`],
+/// followed by a conversion to `Arc<Example>`. This is particularly useful when allocation happens
+/// in one context (e.g., sleepable) and initialisation in another (e.g., atomic):
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::sync::{Arc, UniqueArc};
+///
+/// struct Example {
+/// a: u32,
+/// b: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// fn test() -> Result<Arc<Example>> {
+/// let x = UniqueArc::try_new_uninit()?;
+/// Ok(x.write(Example { a: 10, b: 20 }).into())
+/// }
+///
+/// # test().unwrap();
+/// ```
+///
+/// In the last example below, the caller gets a pinned instance of `Example` while converting to
+/// `Arc<Example>`; this is useful in scenarios where one needs a pinned reference during
+/// initialisation, for example, when initialising fields that are wrapped in locks.
+///
+/// ```
+/// use kernel::sync::{Arc, UniqueArc};
+///
+/// struct Example {
+/// a: u32,
+/// b: u32,
+/// }
+///
+/// fn test() -> Result<Arc<Example>> {
+/// let mut pinned = Pin::from(UniqueArc::try_new(Example { a: 10, b: 20 })?);
+/// // We can modify `pinned` because it is `Unpin`.
+/// pinned.as_mut().a += 1;
