From 114e9fc90703bd6aac0229fb559e97caa6c49770 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:48:07 -0400 Subject: ext4: Remove outdated comment about lock_super() ext4_fill_super() is no longer called by read_super(), and it is no longer called with the superblock locked. The unlock_super()/lock_super() is no longer present, so this comment is entirely superfluous.
