A question about Byte range locking.

[Dhruv Matani]

Hello,
  I was reading the kernel code to try and figure out how byte range
locking is implemented inside the kernel, and it looks as if it is
implemented using linked lists of locks which store the range locked
and the type of lock. Am I right??
