Subject: mm: call arch_swap_restore() from do_swap_page()
Date: Mon, 22 May 2023 17:43:08 -0700
Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance to
restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().
