Subject: [PATCH 3/4] zswap bugfix: memory leaks when invalidate and reclaim
occur simultaneously
Consider the following scenario:
thread 1: zswap reclaim entry x (get the refcount, but not call
zswap_get_swap_cache_page yet)
thread 0: zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page entry x (finished, entry x
and its zbud is not freed as its refcount != 0)
now, the swap_map[x] = 0
thread 1: zswap_get_swap_cache_page called, swapcache_prepare return
-ENOENT because entry x is not used any more
zswap_get_swap_cache_page return ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NOMEM
zswap_writeback_entry do nothing except put refcount
now, the memory of zswap_entry x and its zpage leak
