Subject: mm/swap: clarify unreachable cond_resched() in swap_reclaim_full_clusters
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 13:50:14 +0900

Commit 66366d291f66 ("mm/swap: add cond_resched() in
swap_reclaim_full_clusters to prevent softlockup") added cond_resched() to
prevent soft lockups during heavy swap reclaim.

Currently, there are two call sites for this function:
1. swap_reclaim_work(): called with force=true in a workqueue context.
2. cluster_alloc_swap_entry(): called with force=false, holding a
   local_lock and potentially a global cluster spinlock (atomic context).

In the second case, calling cond_resched() would normally cause a
"scheduling while atomic" bug.  However, it is currently safe because when
force=false, 'to_scan' is initialized to 1.  The loop decrements it to 0
and breaks before ever reaching cond_resched().

This implicit dependency is hard to notice and recently triggered a false
positive in AI Sashiko review.

Add a comment to explicitly clarify that cond_resched() is unreachable in
atomic contexts.  This improves readability and prevents future misuse if
the loop logic or 'to_scan' initialization is modified.
