> Would be good to have some documentation on the locking in HRegion.  In particular, the updateLock and the row locks.
> With the optimizations that have been made, e.g. HBASE-5541 this isn't straightforward.
> When do these locks need to be held?  What structures do they protect access to?  Why does the updateLock not need to be held during rollback?  Those sorts of questions.
> I've started do to some of this, but haven't fully fleshed it out.
