NOTE above, you eliminate the expectations flushing code, but don't
actually delete.  These are previously directly freed here, so I suggest
keeping the direct free here.

I guess this isn't a rw lock anymore.  Also is this comment a bit stale
now, since readers shouldn't need a lock?

This should just say lock, right?
