[PATCH 3/9] tmpfs: move swap swizzling into shmem

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Tue Dec 18 2007 - 17:01:44 EST


move_to_swap_cache and move_from_swap_cache functions (which swizzle a
page between tmpfs page cache and swap cache, to avoid page copying) are
only used by shmem.c; and our subsequent fix for unionfs needs different
treatments in the two instances of move_from_swap_cache. Move them from
swap_state.c into their callsites shmem_writepage, shmem_unuse_inode and
shmem_getpage, making add_to_swap_cache externally visible.

shmem.c likes to say set_page_dirty where swap_state.c liked to say
SetPageDirty: respect that diversity, which __set_page_dirty_no_writeback
makes moot (and implies we should lose that "shift page from clean_pages
to dirty_pages list" comment: it's on neither).
