Subject: mm/shmem, swap: avoid redundant Xarray lookup during swapin
Date: Fri, 27 Jun 2025 14:20:15 +0800
Currently shmem calls xa_get_order to get the swap radix entry order,
requiring a full tree walk. This can be easily combined with the swap
entry value checking (shmem_confirm_swap) to avoid the duplicated lookup,
which should improve the performance.
