[v5][PATCH 2/6] mm: swap: make 'struct page' and swp_entry_t variants of swapcache_free().

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Mon Jun 03 2013 - 16:03:40 EST



From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

swapcache_free() takes two arguments:

void swapcache_free(swp_entry_t entry, struct page *page)

Most of its callers (5/7) are from error handling paths haven't
even instantiated a page, so they pass page=NULL. Both of the
callers that call in with a 'struct page' create and pass in a
temporary swp_entry_t.

Now that we are deferring clearing page_private() until after
swapcache_free() has been called, we can just create a variant
that takes a 'struct page' and does the temporary variable in the
helper.

That leaves all the other callers doing

swapcache_free(entry, NULL)

so create another helper for them that makes it clear that they
need only pass in a swp_entry_t.

One downside here is that delete_from_swap_cache() now calls
swap_address_space() via page_mapping() instead of calling
swap_address_space() directly. In doing so, it removes one more
case of the swap cache code being special-cased, which is a good
thing in my book. But it does cost us a function call.
