        a) where the hell is update to Documentation/filesystems/* ?
        b) Dave, meet grep. grep, meet Dave. Have a happy relationship...

_Please_, grep before doing global changes. Trivial search for
notify_change() would show several calls under ->i_sem. E.g. one
in fs/nfsd/vfs.c. Or in hpfs_unlink().

All other problems with BKL brigade aside, could you at least learn to
use basic tools? It's not a rocket science, after all - you do global
interface changes, you need to do global search.
