From 7b1fe59793e61f826bef053107b57b23954833bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Dickins Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 14:39:34 -0800 Subject: mm: reuse_swap_page replaces can_share_swap_page A good place to free up old swap is where do_wp_page(), or do_swap_page(), is about to redirty the page: the data on disk is then stale and won't be read again; and if we do decide to write the page out later, using the previous swap location makes an unnecessary disk seek very likely. So give can_share_swap_page() the side-effect of delete_from_swap_cache() when it safely can. And can_share_swap_page() was always a misleading name, the more so if it has a side-effect: rename it reuse_swap_page(). Irrelevant cleanup nearby: remove swap_token_default_timeout definition from swap.h: it's used nowhere.
