Hm...some concerns.

Here.

Do we need to wait until here for detecting page-allocation-failure ?
Detecting it here means -EIO for end_swap_bio_write()....unhappy
ALERT messages etc..

Can't we add a hook to get_swap_page() for preparing this ("do we have
enough pool?") and use only GFP_ATOMIC throughout codes ?
(memory pool for this swap should be big to some extent.)

>From my user support experience for heavy swap customers, extra memory allocation for swapping out is just bad...in many cases.
(*) I know GFP_IO works well to some extent.

Thanks,
