From 2773d282cd56464f62e9b4703c41d2f733a67842 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junxuan Liao Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2025 23:01:32 -0500 Subject: docs/vfs: update references to i_mutex to i_rwsem VFS has switched to i_rwsem for ten years now (9902af79c01a: parallel lookups actual switch to rwsem), but the VFS documentation and comments still has references to i_mutex.
