[PATCH v2 8/9] mm/swap: introduce a helper for swapin without vmfault

From: Kairui Song
Date: Tue Jan 02 2024 - 12:55:55 EST


From: Kairui Song <kasong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

There are two places where swapin is not caused by direct anon page fault:
- shmem swapin, invoked indirectly through shmem mapping
- swapoff

They used to construct a pseudo vmfault struct for swapin function.
Shmem has dropped the pseudo vmfault recently in commit ddc1a5cbc05d
("mempolicy: alloc_pages_mpol() for NUMA policy without vma"). Swapoff
path is still using one.

Introduce a helper for them both, this help save stack usage for swapoff
path, and help apply a unified swapin cache and readahead policy check.

Due to missing vmfault info, the caller have to pass in mempolicy
explicitly, make it different from swapin_entry and name it
swapin_entry_mpol.

This commit convert swapoff to use this helper, follow-up commits will
convert shmem to use it too.
