[PATCH] blk-wbt: Cleanup some comments

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Tang Yizhou <yizhou.tang@xxxxxxxxxx>

wbt_wait() no longer uses a spinlock as a parameter. Update the
function comments accordingly.

Additionally, revise other comments to ensure they align with the
actual implementation.
