Qu Wenruo 34ffafdba1 btrfs: ctree: Remove stray comment of setting up path lock
The following comment shows up in btrfs_search_slot() with out much
sense:

	/*
	 * setup the path here so we can release it under lock
	 * contention with the cow code
	 */
	if (cow) {
		/* code touching path->lock[] is far away from here */
	}

This comment hasn't been cleaned up after the relevant code has been
removed.

The original code is introduced in commit 65b51a009e
("btrfs_search_slot: reduce lock contention by cowing in two stages"):

  +
  +               /*
  +                * setup the path here so we can release it under lock
  +                * contention with the cow code
  +                */
  +               p->nodes[level] = b;
  +               if (!p->skip_locking)
  +                       p->locks[level] = 1;
  +

But in current code, we have different timing for modifying path lock,
so just remove the comment.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
