Subject: [PATCH 4/9] swap: Simplify shmem_unuse() usage [optional]
Date: Fri, 02 Mar 2007 15:54:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1172850884.11149.124.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Simplify shmem_unuse_inode() removing a confusing optimisation which
requires the caller to call swap_duplicate if the shmem_unuse() call
doesn't succeed.
Based on a patch by Nick Piggin and some of my own changes as discussed
on LKML.
