Here is the update on the patch.
I found few bugs in my shmem_truncate_range() (surprise!!)
- BUG_ON(subdir->nr_swapped > offset);
- freeing up the "subdir" while it has some more entries
swapped.
I wrote some tests to force swapping and working out the bugs.
I haven't tried your test yet, since its kind of intimidating :(
Thanks,
Badari
