Jan Blunck 866707fc27 Documentation/filesystems/Locking: update documentation on llseek() wrt BKL ... The inode's i_size is not protected by the big kernel lock. Therefore it does not make sense to recommend taking the BKL in filesystems llseek operations. Instead it should use the inode's mutex or use just use i_size_read() instead. Add a note that this is not protecting file->f_pos.
