- * __wt_btree_can_evict_dirty --
- *     Check whether eviction of dirty pages or splits are permitted in the current tree. We cannot
- *     evict dirty pages or split while a checkpoint is in progress, unless the checkpoint thread is
- *     doing the work. Also, during connection close, if we take a checkpoint as of a timestamp,
- *     eviction should not write dirty pages to avoid updates newer than the checkpoint timestamp
- *     leaking to disk.
+ * __wt_btree_syncing_by_other_session --
