It seems that call null_flush_cache_page() must hold nullb->lock and it returns with nullb->lock held. However, this is not clearly described, and the caller may forget to hold the lock. Therefore, add __must_hold() macro to the function entry to show that the lock is held on function entry and exit, which allows sparse to do lock checking.
