From 07a427884348d38a6fd56fa4d78249c407196650 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2014 16:10:24 -0700 Subject: mm: shmem: avoid atomic operation during shmem_getpage_gfp shmem_getpage_gfp uses an atomic operation to set the SwapBacked field before it's even added to the LRU or visible. This is unnecessary as what could it possible race against? Use an unlocked variant.
