  * DOC: Reservation Object Overview
  *
- * The reservation object provides a mechanism to manage shared and
- * exclusive fences associated with a buffer.  A reservation object
- * can have attached one exclusive fence (normally associated with
- * write operations) or N shared fences (read operations).  The RCU
- * mechanism is used to protect read access to fences from locked
- * write-side updates.

+ * parameter determining how the operation represented by the fence is using the
+ * resource. The RCU mechanism is used to protect read access to fences from
+ * locked write-side updates.
