Why _cond?

First of all:

verify_comment_style: WARNING: Multi-line comment needs to start text on the second line:
[+ /* TODO: this will issue notifications to all registered notifiers,]

Then, if you only want to run the callbacks for the one going away only,
why don't you simply do:

mutex_lock(&data->lock);
notifier->ops->invalidate_start(notifier, 0, inode->i_size >> PAGE_SHIFT);
notifier->ops->invalidate_end(notifier, 0, inode->i_size >> PAGE_SHIFT);
list_del(&notifier->list);
mutex_unlock(&data->lock);

here?
