# Node ID 6e04df1f4284689b1c46e57a67559abe49ecf292

The conversion to a rwsem allows notifier callbacks during rmap traversal
for files. A rw style lock also allows concurrent walking of the
reverse map so that multiple processors can expire pages in the same memory
area of the same process. So it increases the potential concurrency.

-The page_table_lock nests with the inode i_mmap_lock and the kmem cache
+The page_table_lock nests with the inode i_mmap_sem and the kmem cache
 c_spinlock spinlocks.  This is okay, since the kmem code asks for pages after
 dropping c_spinlock.  The page_table_lock also nests with pagecache_lock and
 pagemap_lru_lock spinlocks, and no code asks for memory with these locks
