Subject: what protects page lru list?

Hi,
I am confused with what protects page->lru? Is it both zone->lru_lock or
zone->lock? I can see it being protected either by lru_lock or lock.
Are their any
rules where to use lru_lock and where to use lock?
I did google but couldn't find anything. Sorry if its already discusses
elsewhere, but I couldn't locate any.
