  * 01-3-11 Make nbd work with new Linux block layer code. It now supports
  *   plugging like all the other block devices. Also added in MSG_MORE to
  *   reduce number of partial TCP segments sent. <steve@chygwyn.com>
+ * 01-12-6 Fix deadlock condition by making queue locks independant of
+ *   the transmit lock. <steve@chygwyn.com>
  *
  * possible FIXME: make set_sock / set_blksize / set_size / do_it one syscall
  * why not: would need verify_area and friends, would share yet another
