You move the mem_cgroup_swapin_charge_folio() inside the for loop:


        for (;;) {
                int err;
                /*
                 * First check the swap cache.  Since this is normally
                 * called after swap_cache_get_folio() failed, re-calling
                 * that would confuse statistics.
                 */
                folio = filemap_get_folio(swap_address_space(entry),
                                                swp_offset(entry));

Wouldn't it cause repeat charging of the folio when it is racing
against others in the for loop?

The original code makes the charge outside of the for loop. Only the
winner can charge once.
