+ * fsnotify inode mark locking/lifetime/and refcnting
+ *
+ * REFCNT:
+ * The mark->refcnt tells how many "things" in the kernel currently are
+ * referencing this object. The object typically will live inside the kernel
+ * with a refcnt of 2, one for each list it is on (i_list, g_list). Any task
+ * which can find this object holding the appropriete locks, can take a reference
+ * and the object itself is guarenteed to survive until the reference is dropped.
+ *
+ * LOCKING:
+ * There are 3 spinlocks involved with fsnotify inode marks and they MUST
+ * be taken in order as follows:
+ *
+ * entry->lock
+ * group->mark_lock
+ * inode->i_lock
+ *
+ * entry->lock protects 2 things, entry->group and entry->inode. You must hold
+ * that lock to dereference either of these things (they could be NULL even with
+ * the lock)
+ *
+ * group->mark_lock protects the mark_entries list anchored inside a given group
+ * and each entry is hooked via the g_list. It also sorta protects the
+ * free_g_list, which when used is anchored by a private list on the stack of the
+ * task which held the group->mark_lock.
+ *
+ * inode->i_lock protects the i_fsnotify_mark_entries list anchored inside a
+ * given inode and each entry is hooked via the i_list. (and sorta the
+ * free_i_list)
+ *
+ *
+ * LIFETIME:
+ * Inode marks survive between when they are added to an inode and when their
+ * refcnt==0.
+ *
+ * The inode mark can be cleared for a number of different reasons including:
+ * - The inode is unlinked for the last time. (fsnotify_inode_remove)
+ * - The inode is being evicted from cache. (fsnotify_inode_delete)
+ * - The fs the inode is on is unmounted. (fsnotify_inode_delete/fsnotify_unmount_inodes)
+ * - Something explicitly requests that it be removed. (fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry)
+ * - The fsnotify_group associated with the mark is going away and all such marks
+ * need to be cleaned up. (fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group)
+ *
+ * Worst case we are given an inode and need to clean up all the marks on that
+ * inode. We take i_lock and walk the i_fsnotify_mark_entries safely. For each
+ * mark on the list we take a reference (so the mark can't disappear under us).
+ * We remove that mark form the inode's list of marks and we add this mark to a
+ * private list anchored on the stack using i_free_list; At this point we no
+ * longer fear anything finding the mark using the inode's list of marks.
+ *
+ * We can safely and locklessly run the private list on the stack of everything
+ * we just unattached from the original inode. For each mark on the private list
+ * we grab the mark-> and can thus dereference mark->group and mark->inode. If
+ * we see the group and inode are not NULL we take those locks. Now holding all
+ * 3 locks we can completely remove the mark from other tasks finding it in the
+ * future. Remember, 10 things might already be referencing this mark, but they
+ * better be holding a ref. We drop our reference we took before we unhooked it
+ * from the inode. When the ref hits 0 we can free the mark.
+ *
+ * Very similarly for freeing by group, except we use free_g_list.
+ *
+ * This has the very interesting property of being able to run concurrently with
+ * any (or all) other directions.
