- * ide_setting_mtx protects the settings list
- * ide_lock protects the use of settings
- *
- * so we need to hold both, ide_settings_sem because we want to
- * modify the settings list, and ide_lock because we cannot take
- * a setting out that is being used.

- * OTOH both ide_{read,write}_setting are only ever used under
- * ide_setting_mtx.
+ * ide_setting_mtx protects both the settings list and the use
