simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
implement to provide this.
- The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
- The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
aligned to memory block size.
- The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
- The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
- The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that
are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more
efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
- The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected
because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
favor of using more current facilities.
- The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
- The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the
addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
tables". This change does result in various architectures performing
unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
- The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
structures.
- The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
which we've been missing for 15 years.
- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
dramaticelly reduced.
- The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
reading the code.
- The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
hit.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
Baoquan found via code inspection.
- The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly
ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
- The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
utilization.
- The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive
reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
- The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
- The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic
performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
during memory compaction when using JFS.
- The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
- The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
folio_index() function.
- The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
Moola does that.
- The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
the test_memcontrol selftest.
- The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and
prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code,
tests and documents."
- The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to
making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
conversions in the hugetlb code.

Currently __read_swap_cache_async() has get/put_swap_device() calls to
increase/decrease a swap device reference to prevent swapoff. While some
of its callers have already held the swap device reference, e.g in
do_swap_page() and shmem_swapin_folio() where __read_swap_cache_async()
will finally called. Now there are only two callers not holding a swap
device reference, so make them hold a reference instead. And drop the
get/put_swap_device calls in __read_swap_cache_async. This should reduce
the overhead for swap in during page fault slightly.

This patch (of 12):
Since commit 85a1333417 ("mm/swap: use dedicated entry for swap in

There seem to be several categories of calls to lru_add_drain and
lru_add_drain_all.
The first are code paths that recently allocated, swapped in, or otherwise
processed a batch of pages, and want them all on the LRU. These drain
pages that were recently allocated, probably on the local CPU.
A second category are code paths that are actively trying to reclaim,
migrate, or offline memory. These often use lru_add_drain_all, to drain
the caches on all CPUs.
However, there also seem to be some other callers where we aren't really
doing either. They are calling lru_add_drain(), despite operating on
pages that may have been allocated long ago, and quite possibly on
different CPUs.
Those calls are not likely to be effective at anything but creating lock

The unuse_pte_range() caller only wants the folio while do_swap_page()
wants both the page and the folio. Since do_swap_page() already has logic
for handling both the folio and the page, move the folio-to-page logic
there. This also lets us allocate larger folios in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
path in future.

Currently, there are a couple of issues with our disk swapin tracking for
dynamic zswap shrinker heuristics:
1. We only increment the swapin counter on pivot pages. This means we
are not taking into account pages that also need to be swapped in,
but are already taken care of as part of the readahead window.
2. We are also incrementing when the pages are read from the zswap pool,
which is inaccurate.
This patch rectifies these issues by incrementing the counter whenever we
need to perform a non-zswap read. Note that we are slightly overcounting,
as a page might be read into memory by the readahead algorithm even though
it will not be neeeded by users - however, this is an acceptable
inaccuracy, as the readahead logic itself will adapt to these kind of
scenarios.
To test this change, I built the kernel under a cgroup with its memory.max
set to 2 GB:
real: 236.66s
user: 4286.06s
sys: 652.86s
swapins: 81552
For comparison, with just the new second chance algorithm, the build time
is as follows:
real: 244.85s
user: 4327.22s
sys: 664.39s
swapins: 94663
Without neither:
real: 263.89s
user: 4318.11s
sys: 673.29s
swapins: 227300.5
(average over 5 runs)
With this change, the kernel CPU time reduces by a further 1.7%, and the
real time is reduced by another 3.3%, compared to just the second chance
algorithm by itself. The swapins count also reduces by another 13.85%.
Combinng the two changes, we reduce the real time by 10.32%, kernel CPU
time by 3%, and number of swapins by 64.12%.
To gauge the new scheme's ability to offload cold data, I ran another
benchmark, in which the kernel was built under a cgroup with memory.max
set to 3 GB, but with 0.5 GB worth of cold data allocated before each
build (in a shmem file).
Under the old scheme:
real: 197.18s
user: 4365.08s
sys: 289.02s
zswpwb: 72115.2
Under the new scheme:
real: 195.8s
user: 4362.25s
sys: 290.14s
zswpwb: 87277.8
(average over 5 runs)
Notice that we actually observe a 21% increase in the number of written
back pages - so the new scheme is just as good, if not better at
offloading pages from the zswap pool when they are cold. Build time
reduces by around 0.7% as a result.

Right now, swapcache_prepare() and swapcache_clear() supports one entry
only, to support large folios, we need to handle multiple swap entries.
To optimize stack usage, we iterate twice in __swap_duplicate(): the first
time to verify that all entries are valid, and the second time to apply
the modifications to the entries.
Currently, we're using nr=1 for the existing users.

However, it left behind some remnants in swap_read_folio(), the

swap_read_folio() reads the folio synchronously if synchronous=true or if
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set in swap_info_struct. The only caller that
passes synchronous=true is in do_swap_page() in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO

Hence, the argument is redundant, it is only set to true when the swap

Patch series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation".
When VMA based swap readahead is introduced in commit ec560175c0 ("mm,

that it's better to use the fields of the struct directly. This can
simplify the code to improve the code readability. The line number of
source code reduces too.
A theoretical underflow issue and some related code cleanup is done in the
series too.
This patch (of 3):
In swap readahead window calculation, if the fault PFN is smaller than the
readahead window size, underflow may occurs. This is only possible in
theory, because the start of the virtual address space will not be used
for anonymous pages in practice. Even if underflow occurs, there will be
no functional bugs. In the worst cases, some swap entries may be swapped
in incorrectly and some pages may be allocate on the wrong nodes.
Anyway, we still needs to fix the issue via some underflow checking.

Currently we use one swap_address_space for every 64M chunk to reduce lock
contention, this is like having a set of smaller swap files inside one
swap device. But when doing swap cache look up or insert, we are still
using the offset of the whole large swap device. This is OK for
correctness, as the offset (key) is unique.
But Xarray is specially optimized for small indexes, it creates the radix
tree levels lazily to be just enough to fit the largest key stored in one
Xarray. So we are wasting tree nodes unnecessarily.
For 64M chunk it should only take at most 3 levels to contain everything.
But if we are using the offset from the whole swap device, the offset
(key) value will be way beyond 64M, and so will the tree level.
Optimize this by using a new helper swap_cache_index to get a swap entry's
unique offset in its own 64M swap_address_space.
I see a ~1% performance gain in benchmark and actual workload with high
memory pressure.
Test with `time memhog 128G` inside a 8G memcg using 128G swap (ramdisk
with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO dropped, tested 3 times, results are stable. The
test result is similar but the improvement is smaller if
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is enabled, as swap out path can never skip swap
cache):

Add __tlb_remove_folio_pages(), which will remove multiple consecutive
pages that belong to the same large folio, instead of only a single page.
We'll be using this function when optimizing unmapping/zapping of large
folios that are mapped by PTEs.
We're using the remaining spare bit in an encoded_page to indicate that
the next enoced page in an array contains actually shifted "nr_pages".
Teach swap/freeing code about putting multiple folio references, and
delayed rmap handling to remove page ranges of a folio.
This extension allows for still gathering almost as many small folios as
we used to (-1, because we have to prepare for a possibly bigger next
entry), but still allows for gathering consecutive pages that belong to
the same large folio.
Note that we don't pass the folio pointer, because it is not required for
now. Further, we don't support page_size != PAGE_SIZE, it won't be
required for simple PTE batching.
We have to provide a separate s390 implementation, but it's fairly
straight forward.
Another, more invasive and likely more expensive, approach would be to use
folio+range or a PFN range instead of page+nr_pages. But, we should do
that consistently for the whole mmu_gather. For now, let's keep it simple
and add "nr_pages" only.
Note that it is now possible to gather significantly more pages: In the
past, we were able to gather ~10000 pages, now we can also gather ~5000
folio fragments that span multiple pages. A folio fragment on x86-64 can
span up to 512 pages (2 MiB THP) and on arm64 with 64k in theory 8192
pages (512 MiB THP). Gathering more memory is not considered something we
should worry about, especially because these are already corner cases.
While we can gather more total memory, we won't free more folio fragments.
As long as page freeing time primarily only depends on the number of
involved folios, there is no effective change for !preempt configurations.
However, we'll adjust tlb_batch_pages_flush() separately to handle corner
cases where page freeing time grows proportionally with the actual memory
size.

When a folio is swapped in, the protection size of the corresponding zswap
LRU is incremented, so that the zswap shrinker is more conservative with
its reclaiming action. This field is embedded within the struct lruvec,
so updating it requires looking up the folio's memcg and lruvec. However,
currently this lookup can happen after the folio is unlocked, for instance
if a new folio is allocated, and swap_read_folio() unlocks the folio
before returning. In this scenario, there is no stability guarantee for
the binding between a folio and its memcg and lruvec:
* A folio's memcg and lruvec can be freed between the lookup and the
update, leading to a UAF.
* Folio migration can clear the now-unlocked folio's memcg_data, which
directs the zswap LRU protection size update towards the root memcg
instead of the original memcg. This was recently picked up by the
syzbot thanks to a warning in the inlined folio_lruvec() call.
Move the zswap LRU protection range update above the swap_read_folio()
call, and only when a new page is allocated, to prevent this.

The only two callers simply call put_page() on the page returned, so
they're happier calling folio_put(). Saves two calls to compound_head().

Patch series "More swap folio conversions".
These all seem like fairly straightforward conversions to me. A lot of
compound_head() calls get removed. And page_swap_info(), which is nice.
This patch (of 13):
Move the folio->page conversion into the callers that actually want that.
Most of the callers are happier with the folio anyway. If the
page_allocated boolean is set, the folio allocated is of order-0, so it is
safe to pass the page directly to swap_readpage().

Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is
hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead
of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as
memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages).
This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is
initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any
parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a
per-memcg basis.
Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent
overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into
memory), we build in the following heuristics:
* Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to
protect this region of the zswap LRU.
* Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory
saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages
we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively
small memory saving).
* During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being
brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its
shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer
region of the zswap LRU.
As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

Currently, we only have a single global LRU for zswap. This makes it
impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg cannot
determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages
from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice
and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u
This patch fully resolves the issue by replacing the global zswap LRU
with memcg- and NUMA-specific LRUs, and modify the reclaim logic:
a) When a store attempt hits an memcg limit, it now triggers a
synchronous reclaim attempt that, if successful, allows the new
hotter page to be accepted by zswap.
b) If the store attempt instead hits the global zswap limit, it will
trigger an asynchronous reclaim attempt, in which an memcg is
selected for reclaim in a round-robin-like fashion.

Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit 09c231cb8b
("tmpfs: distribute interleave better across nodes"), which added ino bias
to the interleave, hidden from mm/mempolicy.c until this commit.
Hence "ilx" throughout, the "interleave index". Originally I thought it
could be done just with nid, but that's wrong: the nodemask may come from
the shared policy layer below a shmem vma, or it may come from the task
layer above a shmem vma; and without the final nodemask then nodeid cannot
be decided. And how ilx is applied depends also on page order.
The interleave index is almost always irrelevant unless MPOL_INTERLEAVE:
with one exception in alloc_pages_mpol(), where the NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX
passed down from vma-less alloc_pages() is also used as hint not to use
THP-style hugepage allocation - to avoid the overhead of a hugepage arg
(though I don't understand why we never just added a GFP bit for THP - if
it actually needs a different allocation strategy from other pages of the
same order). vma_alloc_folio() still carries its hugepage arg here, but
it is not used, and should be removed when agreed.
get_vma_policy() no longer allows a NULL vma: over time I believe we've
eradicated all the places which used to need it e.g. swapoff and madvise
used to pass NULL vma to read_swap_cache_async(), but now know the vma.

Patch series "mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP
+ cleanups".
This series stops using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP, replaces
folio->private by folio->swap for swapcache folios, and starts using
"new_folio" for tail pages that we are splitting to remove the usage of
page->private for swapcache handling completely.
This patch (of 4):
Let's stop using page->private on tail pages, making it possible to just
unconditionally reuse that field in the tail pages of large folios.
The remaining usage of the private field for THP_SWAP is in the THP
splitting code (mm/huge_memory.c), that we'll handle separately later.
Update the THP_SWAP documentation and sanity checks in mm_types.h and
__split_huge_page_tail().

Patch series "Per-VMA lock support for swap and userfaults", v7.
When per-VMA locks were introduced in [1] several types of page faults
would still fall back to mmap_lock to keep the patchset simple. Among
them are swap and userfault pages. The main reason for skipping those
cases was the fact that mmap_lock could be dropped while handling these
faults and that required additional logic to be implemented. Implement
the mechanism to allow per-VMA locks to be dropped for these cases.
First, change handle_mm_fault to drop per-VMA locks when returning
VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED to be consistent with the way
mmap_lock is handled. Then change folio_lock_or_retry to accept vm_fault
and return vm_fault_t which simplifies later patches. Finally allow swap
and uffd page faults to be handled under per-VMA locks by dropping per-VMA
and retrying, the same way it's done under mmap_lock. Naturally, once VMA
lock is dropped that VMA should be assumed unstable and can't be used.
This patch (of 6):
Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read
latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2]
removed polling support. Therefore it seems safe to remove do_poll
parameter in read_swap_cache_async and always call swap_readpage with
synchronous=false waiting for IO completion in folio_lock_or_retry.
[1] commit 23955622ff ("swap: add block io poll in swapin path")
[2] commit 9650b453a3 ("block: ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio")

Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use
ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a
C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to
do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are
volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics.
But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by
the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code
is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is
intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own
implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or
determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source.
Conversion was done using Coccinelle:
----
// $ make coccicheck \
// COCCI=ptepget.cocci \
// SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \
// MODE=patch
virtual patch
@ depends on patch @
pte_t *v;
@@
- *v
+ ptep_get(v)
----
Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to
ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a
variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of
READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex.
Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that
was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config
MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including
ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple
huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep.
So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because
ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference
when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be
trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are
defined.

swap_vma_readahead() has been proceeding in an unconventional way, its
preliminary swap_ra_info() doing the pte_offset_map() and pte_unmap(),
then relying on that pte pointer even after the pte_unmap() - in its
CONFIG_64BIT case (I think !CONFIG_HIGHPTE was intended; whereas 32-bit
copied ptes to stack while they were mapped, but had to limit how many).
Though it would be difficult to construct a failing testcase, accessing
page table after pte_unmap() will become bad practice, even on 64-bit: an
rcu_read_unlock() in pte_unmap() will allow page table to be freed.
Move relevant definitions from include/linux/swap.h to mm/swap_state.c,
nothing else used them. Delete the CONFIG_64BIT distinction and buffer,
delete all reference to ptes from swap_ra_info(), use pte_offset_map()
repeatedly in swap_vma_readahead(), breaking from the loop if it fails.
(Will the repeated "map" and "unmap" show up as a slowdown anywhere? If
so, maybe modify __read_swap_cache_async() to do the pte_unmap() only when
it does not find the page already in the swapcache.)
Use ptep_get_lockless(), mainly for its READ_ONCE(). Correctly advance
the address passed down to each call of __read__swap_cache_async().

__swp_swapcount() just encloses the calling to swap_swapcount() with
get/put_swap_device(). It is called in __read_swap_cache_async() only,
which encloses the calling with get/put_swap_device() already. So,
__read_swap_cache_async() can call swap_swapcount() directly.

This makes the function a little easier to be understood because we don't
need to consider swapoff. And this makes it possible to remove
get/put_swap_device() calling in some functions called by
__read_swap_cache_async().

Instead of returning NULL for all errors, distinguish between:
- no entry found and not asked to allocated (-ENOENT)
- failed to allocate memory (-ENOMEM)
- would block (-EAGAIN)
so that callers don't have to guess the error based on the passed in
flags.
Also pass through the error through the direct callers: filemap_get_folio,
filemap_lock_folio filemap_grab_folio and filemap_get_incore_folio.

filemap_get_incore_folio wants to look at the details of xa_is_value
entries, but doesn't need any of the other logic in filemap_get_folio.
Switch it to use the lower-level filemap_get_entry interface.
