Huang Ying 054f1d1faa mm/swap_state.c: simplify total_swapcache_pages() with get_swap_device()
total_swapcache_pages() may race with swapper_spaces[] allocation and
freeing.  Previously, this is protected with a swapper_spaces[] specific
RCU mechanism.  To simplify the logic/code complexity, it is replaced with
get/put_swap_device().  The code line number is reduced too.  Although not
so important, the swapoff() performance improves too because one
synchronize_rcu() call during swapoff() is deleted.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
