shmem knows for sure that the page is in swap cache when attempting to charge a page, because the cache charge entry function has a check for it. Only anon pages may be removed from swap cache already when trying to charge their swapin. Adjust the comment, though: '4969c11 mm: fix swapin race condition' added a stable PageSwapCache check under the page lock in the do_swap_page() before calling the memory controller, so it's unuse_pte()'s pte_same() that may fail.
