OK, thanks, I'll drop Deepanshu's "mm/swap_cgroup: fix kernel BUG in
swap_cgroup_record". I understand that Kairui's
mm-swap-use-swap-cache-as-the-swap-in-synchronize-layer-fix
(https://lkml.kernel.org/r/CAMgjq7CGUnzOVG7uSaYjzw9wD7w2dSKOHprJfaEp4CcGLgE3iw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
has addressed this mm-unstable issue.


However Deepanshu's "mm/swap_cgroup: fix kernel BUG in
swap_cgroup_record" has

Fixes: 1a4e58cce84e ("mm: introduce MADV_PAGEOUT")

Which I assume was mistaken?
