From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: use __SetPageSwapBacked and dont ClearPageSwapBacked
v3.16 commit 07a427884348 ("mm: shmem: avoid atomic operation during
shmem_getpage_gfp") rightly replaced one instance of SetPageSwapBacked by
__SetPageSwapBacked, pointing out that the newly allocated page is not yet
visible to other users (except speculative get_page_unless_zero- ers, who
may not update page flags before their further checks).
That was part of a series in which Mel was focused on tmpfs profiles: but
almost all SetPageSwapBacked uses can be so optimized, with the same
justification. Remove ClearPageSwapBacked from __read_swap_cache_async()
error path: it's not an error to free a page with PG_swapbacked set.
Follow a convention of __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked instead of
doing it differently in different places; but that's for tidiness - if the
ordering actually mattered, we should not be using the __variants.
There's probably scope for further __SetPageFlags in other places, but
SwapBacked is the one I'm interested in at the moment.
