mm: memcg: only check anon swapin page charges for swap cache
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
shmem knows for sure that the page is in swap cache when attempting to
charge a page, because the cache charge entry function has a check for it.
Only anon pages may be removed from swap cache already when trying to
charge their swapin.

Adjust the comment, though: '4969c11 mm: fix swapin race condition' added
a stable PageSwapCache check under the page lock in the do_swap_page()
before calling the memory controller, so it's unuse_pte()'s pte_same()
that may fail.
