+ * Right now, these functions are empty and only left
+ * for documentation purposes. The file system no longer
+ * works on SMP systems, so the lock is not needed
+ * any more.
+ *
+ * If someone is interested in making it work again, this
+ * would be the place to start by adding a per-superblock
+ * mutex and fixing all the bugs and performance issues
+ * caused by that.
