- * An interesting effect of this policy is that only writes to req_vq need to
- * take the tgt_lock.  Read can be done outside the lock because:
- *
- * - writes of req_vq only occur when atomic_inc_return(&tgt->reqs) returns 1.
- *   In that case, no other CPU is reading req_vq: even if they were in
- *   virtscsi_queuecommand_multi, they would be spinning on tgt_lock.
- *
- * - reads of req_vq only occur when the target is not idle (reqs != 0).
- *   A CPU that enters virtscsi_queuecommand_multi will not modify req_vq.
- *
- * Similarly, decrements of reqs are never concurrent with writes of req_vq.
- * Thus they can happen outside the tgt_lock, provided of course we make reqs
- * an atomic_t.
+ * tgt_lock is held to serialize reading and writing req_vq, and reading
+ * req_vq should have been done concurrently, but need a bit complicated
+ * trick.
