[PATCH 1/2] zram: use zram_read_from_zspool() in writeback

From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Wed Dec 11 2024 - 03:25:47 EST


We only can read pages from zspool in writeback, zram_read_page()
is not really right in that context not only because it's a more
generic function that handles ZRAM_WB pages, but also because it
requires us to unlock slot between slot flag check and actual page
read. Use zram_read_from_zspool() instead and do slot flags check
and page read under the same slot lock.

This is not -stable material. The patch simply makes things look
more logical and corect. The page content still can change while
we are in submit_bio_wait() and we try to handle that when
submit_bio_wait() returns.
