 /*
- *	xfs_iozero
+ * xfs_iozero clears the specified range supplied via the page cache (except in
+ * the DAX case). Writes through the page cache will allocate blocks over holes,
+ * though the callers usually map the holes first and avoid them. If a block is
+ * not completely zeroed, then it will be read from disk before being partially
+ * zeroed.
  *
- *	xfs_iozero clears the specified range of buffer supplied,
- *	and marks all the affected blocks as valid and modified.  If
- *	an affected block is not allocated, it will be allocated.  If
- *	an affected block is not completely overwritten, and is not
- *	valid before the operation, it will be read from disk before
- *	being partially zeroed.
+ * In the DAX case, we can just directly write to the underlying pages. This
+ * will not allocate blocks, but will avoid holes and unwritten extents and so
+ * not do unnecessary work.
