* for faster lookup and a list for iteration. They are managed using
* RCU, i.e. access to the list and hash table is protected by RCU.
*
- * STA info structures are always "alive" when they are added with
- * @sta_info_add() [this may be changed in the future to allow allocating
- * outside of a critical section!], they are then added to the hash
- * table and list. Therefore, @sta_info_add() must also be RCU protected,
- * also, the caller of @sta_info_add() cannot assume that it owns the
- * structure.
+ * Upon allocating a STA info structure with @sta_info_alloc() or
+ * mesh_plink_alloc(), the caller owns that structure. It must then either
+ * destroy it using @sta_info_destroy() (which is pretty useless) or insert
+ * it into the hash table using @sta_info_insert() which demotes the reference
+ * from ownership to a regular RCU-protected reference; if the function
+ * is called without protection by an RCU critical section the reference
+ * is instantly invalidated.
*
* Because there are debugfs entries for each station, and adding those
* must be able to sleep, it is also possible to "pin" a station entry,
