It was never meant to actually get put into the main tree as it stood; for
that matter, I don't even know how it got there! ;-)

My first quick readover of the document gives me a sense that it is a
pretty good overview. I'm wondering if you could add a few more details
describing the expected semantics of the inode/dentry operations (little
things like saying that write is called with the inode lock held, whereas
read must be threaded). I hope that for 2.3 a more rigorous specification
will be written (who knows, I might do this) before the cleanup of the
dentry/inode boundries -- I believe that things like lofs have become
substantially messier with the new VFS, somewhat the opposite of the
intended effect. In any case, many thanks for writing updated docs.
