+ * Notifier chains are of four types:
+ *
+ * Atomic notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in interrupt/atomic
+ * context. Callouts are not allowed to block.
+ * Blocking notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in process context.
+ * Callouts are allowed to block.
+ * Raw notifier chains: There are no restrictions on callbacks,
+ * registration, or unregistration. All locking and protection
+ * must be provided by the caller.
+ * SRCU notifier chains: A variant of blocking notifier chains, with
+ * the same restrictions.
+ *
+ * atomic_notifier_chain_register() may be called from an atomic context,
+ * but blocking_notifier_chain_register() and srcu_notifier_chain_register()
+ * must be called from a process context. Ditto for the corresponding
+ * _unregister() routines.
+ *
+ * atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), blocking_notifier_chain_unregister(),
+ * and srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() _must not_ be called from within
+ * the call chain.
+ *
+ * SRCU notifier chains are an alternative form of blocking notifier chains.
+ * They use SRCU (Sleepable Read-Copy Update) instead of rw-semaphores for
+ * protection of the chain links. This means there is _very_ low overhead
+ * in srcu_notifier_call_chain(): no cache bounces and no memory barriers.
+ * As compensation, srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() is rather expensive.
+ * SRCU notifier chains should be used when the chain will be called very
+ * often but notifier_blocks will seldom be removed.
