Hi Alan,

I totally agree that the wording could be more clear.  If you'd like
to improve it and want a second pair of eyes on the modified text,
feel free to CC me.  I appreciate anything that improves the clarity
of our VFS documentation, especially given how complex VFS is.

(In particular, if Andriy ever deleted
https://wiki.freebsd.org/AndriyGapon/AvgVfsSolarisVsFreeBSD , I would
be lost :-).)

Best,
Conrad
