* A thing to keep in mind: inode @i_mutex is locked in most VFS operations we
* implement. However, this is not true for 'ubifs_writepage()', which may be
- * called with @i_mutex unlocked. For example, when pdflush is doing background
- * write-back, it calls 'ubifs_writepage()' with unlocked @i_mutex. At "normal"
- * work-paths the @i_mutex is locked in 'ubifs_writepage()', e.g. in the
- * "sys_write -> alloc_pages -> direct reclaim path". So, in 'ubifs_writepage()'
- * we are only guaranteed that the page is locked.
