From 29687512c0b084957112cc2c0743ce34cd0d5055 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Bottomley Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2010 09:22:24 -0500 Subject: [SCSI] fix up documentation for change in ->queuecommand to lockless calling The current doc still says we call it with the host lock held, which is going to cause confusion.
