[PATCH 4/4] mm: use swap readahead at swapoff

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Fri Feb 10 2012 - 14:42:37 EST


try_to_unuse() iterates over swap-entries sequentially,
thus readahead here will not hurt.

Test results:
Virtual machine: without patch 7 seconds, with patch 4 seconds.
Real hardware: without patch 100 seconds, with patch 70 seconds.
