mm/swap: fix race on swap_info reuse between swapoff and swapon DateThu, 09 Jan 2014 13:39:55 +0800



swapoff clear swap_info's SWP_USED flag prematurely and free its resources
after that. A concurrent swapon will reuse this swap_info while its previous
resources are not cleared completely.

These late freed resources are:
- p->percpu_cluster
- swap_cgroup_ctrl[type]
- block_device setting
- inode->i_flags &= ~S_SWAPFILE

This patch clear SWP_USED flag after all its resources freed, so that swapon
can reuse this swap_info by alloc_swap_info() safely.
