Christoph Hellwig 5b68de6703 fs: remove an outdated comment on mpage_writepages 
Patch series "remove generic_writepages"

This series removes generic_writepages by open coding the current
functionality in the three remaining callers.  Besides removing some
code the main benefit is that one of the few remaining ->writepage
callers from outside the core page cache code go away.

This patch (of 6):


mpage_writepages doesn't do any of the page locking itself, so remove and
outdated comment on the locking pattern there.
