For the exclusive reference page, the non-atomic operations is enough,
so replace them to non-atomic operations.

I do expect you do not see any difference in runtime and this is mostly
driven by the code reading, right? Being explicit about this in the code
would be preferred.

Yeah, just code reading.And the set_bit and __set_bit is actually different
on some architectures. Thanks.


No objection to the change.

Good evening, Muchun. I found there are still some places could be replaced with __SetPageSwapCache(). Such as shmem_replace_page(), why PG_locked has been set before SetPageSwapCache() is involved.

Would you please to check the rest places? :)

Thanks
