Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2021 16:54:51 -0800 From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...nel.org> To: linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org Cc: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org, linux-f2fs-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net, linux-xfs@...r.kernel.org, Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>, Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de> Subject: [PATCH 12/13] xfs: remove a stale comment from xfs_file_aio_write_checks() From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com> The comment in xfs_file_aio_write_checks() about calling file_modified() after dropping the ilock doesn't make sense, because the code that unconditionally acquires and drops the ilock was removed by commit 467f78992a07 ("xfs: reduce ilock hold times in xfs_file_aio_write_checks"). Remove this outdated comment.
