From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/swapfile.c: clear si->swap_map[] in swap_free_cluster() si->swap_map[] of the swap entries in cluster needs to be cleared during freeing. Previously, this is done in the caller of swap_free_cluster(). This may cause code duplication (one user now, will add more users later) and lock/unlock cluster unnecessarily. In this patch, the clearing code is moved to swap_free_cluster() to avoid the downside.
