Ying, your understanding is 100% correct. but the code also has nothing
broken. we didn't extend swap_duplicate() to have argument nr,
so all users which can set usage=1 will definitely have nr=1.
int swap_duplicate(swp_entry_t entry)
{
int err = 0;
while (!err && __swap_duplicate(entry, 1, 1) == -ENOMEM)
err = add_swap_count_continuation(entry, GFP_ATOMIC);
return err;
}
Maybe I can add a VM_WARN_ON to warn those people who might
want to extend swap_duplicate()? in that case, things could be quite
tricky.
