Subject: [PATCH 03/24] mm: use __SetPageSwapBacked and don't
ClearPageSwapBacked
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. And remove the ClearPageSwapBacked from
read_swap_cache_async()'s and zswap_get_swap_cache_page()'s error
paths: it's not an error to free a page with PG_swapbacked set.
(There's probably scope for further __SetPageFlags in other places,
but SwapBacked is the one I'm interested in at the moment.)
