Re: More filesystem need this fix (xfs: use MMAPLOCK around filemap_map_pages())

Could the xfs mmap lock documentation please be cleaned up? For
example, the xfs_ilock description says:

> * In addition to i_rwsem in the VFS inode, the xfs inode contains 2
> * multi-reader locks: i_mmap_lock and the i_lock.  This routine allows
> * various combinations of the locks to be obtained.

The field in struct xfs_inode is called i_mmaplock though, not
i_mmap_lock. In addition, struct inode has an i_mmap_rwsem field which
is also referred to as i_mmap_lock. If that isn't irritating enough.

Thanks,
Andreas
