issue is that there are two processes A and B, A is kworker/u16:8
normal priority, B is AudioTrack, RT priority, they are on the
same CPU 3.
The task A preempted by task B in the moment
after __delete_from_swap_cache(page) and before swapcache_free(swap).
The task B does __read_swap_cache_async in the do {} while loop, it
will never find the page from swapper_space because the page is removed
by the task A, and it will never sucessfully in swapcache_prepare because
the entry is EEXIST.
The task B then stuck in the loop infinitely because it is a RT task,
no one can preempt it.
so need to disable preemption until the swapcache_free executed.
