The following comment shows up in btrfs_search_slot() with out much
sense:
/*
* setup the path here so we can release it under lock
* contention with the cow code
*/
if (cow) {
/* code touching path->lock[] is far away from here */
}
This comment hasn't been cleaned up after the relevant code has been
removed.
The original code is introduced in commit 65b51a009e
("btrfs_search_slot: reduce lock contention by cowing in two stages"):
+
+ /*
+ * setup the path here so we can release it under lock
+ * contention with the cow code
+ */
+ p->nodes[level] = b;
+ if (!p->skip_locking)
+ p->locks[level] = 1;
+
But in current code, we have different timing for modifying path lock,
so just remove the comment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
