+/*
+ * Lock descriptions and usage:
+ *
+ * Each hash chain of both the block and index hash tables now contains
+ * a built-in lock used to serialize accesses to the hash chain.
+ *
+ * Accesses to global data structures mb_cache_list and mb_cache_lru_list
+ * are serialized via the global spinlock mb_cache_spinlock.
+ *
+ * Each mb_cache_entry contains a spinlock, e_entry_lock, to serialize
+ * accesses to its local data, such as e_used and e_queued.
+ *
+ * Lock ordering:
+ *
+ * Each block hash chain's lock has the highest lock order, followed by an
+ * index hash chain's lock, mb_cache_bg_lock (used to implement mb_cache_entry's
+ * lock), and mb_cach_spinlock, with the lowest order.  While holding
+ * either a block or index hash chain lock, a thread can acquire an
+ * mc_cache_bg_lock, which in turn can also acquire mb_cache_spinlock.
+ *
+ * Synchronization:
+ *
+ * Since both mb_cache_entry_get and mb_cache_entry_find scan the block and
+ * index hash chian, it needs to lock the corresponding hash chain.  For each
+ * mb_cache_entry within the chain, it needs to lock the mb_cache_entry to
+ * prevent either any simultaneous release or free on the entry and also
+ * to serialize accesses to either the e_used or e_queued member of the entry.
+ *
+ * To avoid having a dangling reference to an already freed
+ * mb_cache_entry, an mb_cache_entry is only freed when it is not on a
+ * block hash chain and also no longer being referenced, both e_used,
+ * and e_queued are 0's.  When an mb_cache_entry is explicitly freed it is
+ * first removed from a block hash chain.
