I'd be happy to take this patch through my tree instead, if you point me
to where I can pick it up (I don't see it on fsdevel or mm).

Although I do think we need to consider whether implementations of
fs entry points (aops, fops, iops, etc) should have documentation in
the individual filesystems.  I understand why individual filesystem
authors want that, but it would be better if we had really
good central documentation of VFS/FS requirements (and honestly
Documentation/filesystems/{locking.rst,vfs.rst} aren't bad) instead of
reiterating them in each individual filesystem.
