Hi,

The series up to and including this patch doesn't build.  For this patch we
need:

Two comments about this part of __swap_duplicate as long as you're moving it to
another function:

   } else if (count || has_cache) {
   
   	if ((count & ~COUNT_CONTINUED) < SWAP_MAP_MAX)          /* #1   */
   		count += usage;
   	else if ((count & ~COUNT_CONTINUED) > SWAP_MAP_MAX)     /* #2   */
   		err = -EINVAL;

#1:  __swap_duplicate_locked might use

    VM_BUG_ON(usage != SWAP_HAS_CACHE && usage != 1);

to document the unstated assumption that usage is 1 (otherwise count could
overflow).

#2:  We've masked off SWAP_HAS_CACHE and COUNT_CONTINUED, and already checked
for SWAP_MAP_BAD, so I think condition #2 always fails and can just be removed.

I guess usage is assumed to be 1 at this point (__swap_duplicate_locked makes
the same assumption).  Maybe make this explicit with

			err = __swap_duplicate_locked(si, offset + i, usage);

, use 'usage' in cluster_set_count and __swap_entry_free too, and then
earlier have a

       VM_BUG_ON(usage != SWAP_HAS_CACHE && usage != 1);

?

This doesn't need inline.


Not related to your changes, but while we're here, the comment with
SWAP_HAS_CONT in swap_count() could be deleted: I don't think there ever was a
SWAP_HAS_CONT.

The rest looks ok up to this point.
