+ * @dir: new parent
+ * @new_dentry: where to create the new link
+ * @delegated_inode: returns inode needing a delegation break
+ *
+ * The caller must hold dir->i_mutex
+ *
+ * If vfs_link discovers a delegation on the to-be-linked file in need
+ * of breaking, it will return -EWOULDBLOCK and return a reference to the
+ * inode in delegated_inode. The caller should then break the delegation
+ * and retry. Because breaking a delegation may take a long time, the
+ * caller should drop the i_mutex before doing so.
+ *
+ * Alternatively, a caller may pass NULL for delegated_inode. This may
+ * be appropriate for callers that expect the underlying filesystem not
+ * to be NFS exported.
