It might be fairly obvious in the context of the series, it's not if someone goes back in history with a git-blame. And it's not a 100% obvious with the series either, at least earlier versions also fixes pre-existing races, although all of that might be upstream now. So as far as I am concerned a simple one-line blurb mentioning what the new locking is for would be useful to be added to all patches just changing the locking. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
