Subject[PATCH 4/4] swap: Simplify shmem_unuse() usage
From
Date
Simplify shmem_unuse_inode() removing a confusing optimisation which
requires the caller to call swap_duplicate if the shmem_unuse() call
doesn't succeed.

Based on a patch by Nick Piggin and some of my own changes as discussed
on LKML.
