-affect locking.
+->fasync() is called without BKL protection, and is responsible for
+maintaining the FASYNC bit in filp->f_flags.  Most instances call
+fasync_helper(), which does that maintenance, so it's not normally
+something one needs to worry about.  Return values > 0 will be mapped to
+zero in the VFS layer.
 
 ->readdir() and ->ioctl() on directories must be changed. Ideally we would
 move ->readdir() to inode_operations and use a separate method for directory
