[PATCH v3 1/2] mm/swapfile: fix possible data races of inuse_pages
From: Miaohe Lin
Date: Sat Jun 25 2022 - 05:33:55 EST
si->inuse_pages could still be accessed concurrently now. The plain reads
outside si->lock critical section, i.e. swap_show and si_swapinfo, which
results in data races. READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE is used to fix such data
races. Note these data races should be ok because they're just used for
showing swap info.
