However, that text (which in any case makes little sense--"Memory which has been evicted from RAM"?) came from Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt, and has been there for many years (since 2.6.0, at least). I'll make the text "Amount of swap space that is currently unused." I'll also submit a patch for Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt.
