[PATCH 02/16] Documentation: get rid of write_super

[Artem Bityutskiy]

From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The '->write_super' superblock method is gone, and this patch removes all the
references to 'write_super' from various pieces of the kernel documentation.

Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I expect this patch to be merged via Al Viro's VFS tree.
