I'm getting below build error after this patch. I guess maybe the code need to
take care of CONFIG_SWAP unset case?
.../mm/memory.c: In function 'do_swap_page':
.../mm/memory.c:4004:8: error: implicit declaration of function 'swapcache_prepare'; did you mean 'swapcache_clear'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
4004 | if (swapcache_prepare(entry))
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| swapcache_clear
