[merged] mm-slightly-clarify-ksm-logic-in-do_swap_page.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm: slightly clarify KSM logic in do_swap_page()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-slightly-clarify-ksm-logic-in-do_swap_page.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
Subject: mm: slightly clarify KSM logic in do_swap_page()

Let's make it clearer that KSM might only have to copy a page in case we
have a page in the swapcache, not if we allocated a fresh page and
bypassed the swapcache.  While at it, add a comment why this is usually
necessary and merge the two swapcache conditions.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment, per David]
