+ * DOC:
+ *
+ * A read_only_notifier has a single completion which is used to perform read-only notifications,
+ * however, vdo_enter_read_only_mode() may be called from any thread. A pair of fields, protected
+ * by a spinlock, are used to control the read-only mode entry process. The first field holds the
+ * read-only error. The second is the state field, which may hold any of the four special values
+ * enumerated here.
+ *
+ * When vdo_enter_read_only_mode() is called from some vdo thread, if the read_only_error field
+ * already contains an error (i.e. its value is not VDO_SUCCESS), then some other error has already
+ * initiated the read-only process, and nothing more is done. Otherwise, the new error is stored in
+ * the read_only_error field, and the state field is consulted. If the state is MAY_NOTIFY, it is
+ * set to NOTIFYING, and the notification process begins. If the state is MAY_NOT_NOTIFY, then
+ * notifications are currently disallowed, generally due to the vdo being suspended. In this case,
+ * the nothing more will be done until the vdo is resumed, at which point the notification will be
+ * performed. In any other case, the vdo is already read-only, and there is nothing more to do.
