[PATCH 86/97] shmem: fix init_page_accessed use to stop !PageLRU bug

[Mel Gorman]

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 66d2f4d28cd030220e7ea2a628993fcabcb956d1 upstream.

Under shmem swapping load, I sometimes hit the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLRU)
in isolate_lru_pages() at mm/vmscan.c:1281!

Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page
cache allocation where possible") looks like interrupted work-in-progress.

mm/filemap.c's call to init_page_accessed() is fine, but not mm/shmem.c's
- shmem_write_begin() is clearly wrong to use it after shmem_getpage(),
when the page is always visible in radix_tree, and often already on LRU.

Revert change to shmem_write_begin(), and use init_page_accessed() or
mark_page_accessed() appropriately for SGP_WRITE in shmem_getpage_gfp().

SGP_WRITE also covers shmem_symlink(), which did not mark_page_accessed()
before; but since many other filesystems use [__]page_symlink(), which did
and does mark the page accessed, consider this as rectifying an oversight.
