 The caller is still responsible for unref-ing the error.
 
 However, the above line is currently being phased out! It is safer to invoke
-callbacks with `grpc_closure_run` and `grpc_closure_sched`. These functions are
+callbacks with `GRPC_CLOSURE_RUN` and `GRPC_CLOSURE_SCHED`. These functions are
 not callbacks, so they will take ownership of the error passed to them.
