+ * The caller must hold the i_mutex on the affected object.
+ *
+ * If notify_change discovers a delegation in need of breaking,
+ * it will return -EWOULDBLOCK and return a reference to the inode in
+ * delegated_inode. The caller should then break the delegation and
+ * retry. Because breaking a delegation may take a long time, the
+ * caller should drop the i_mutex before doing so.
+ *
+ * Alternatively, a caller may pass NULL for delegated_inode. This may
+ * be appropriate for callers that expect the underlying filesystem not
+ * to be NFS exported. Also, passing NULL is fine for callers holding
+ * the file open for write, as there can be no conflicting delegation in
+ * that case.
