Subject[RFC] mm:prototype for the updated swapoff implementation
The function try_to_unuse() is of quadratic complexity, with a lot of
wasted effort. It unuses swap entries one by one, potentially iterating
over all the page tables for all the processes in the system for each
one.

This new proposed implementation of try_to_unuse simplifies its
complexity to linear. It iterates over the system's mms once, unusing
all the affected entries as it walks each set of page tables. It also
makes similar changes to shmem_unuse.

Improvement

swapoff was called on a swap partition containing about 50M of data,
and calls to the function unuse_pte_range were counted.

Present implementation....about 22.5M calls.
Prototype.................about 7.0K calls.

Details

In shmem_unuse, iterate over the shmem_swaplist and, for each
shmem_inode_info that contains a swap entry, pass it to shmem_unuse_inode,
along with the swap type. In shmem_unuse_inode, iterate over its associated
radix tree, and pass each exceptional entry to shmem_getpage_gfp by way of
a new function called shmem_unuse_inode_index.

In try_to_unuse, instead of iterating over the entries in the type and
unusing them one by one, perhaps walking all the page tables for all the
processes for each one, iterate over the mmlist, making one pass. Pass
each mm to unuse_mm to begin its page table walk, and during the walk,
unuse all the ptes that have backing store in the swap type received by
try_to_unuse.

Change unuse_mm and the intervening walk functions down to unuse_pte_range
to take the type as a parameter, and to iterate over their entire range,
calling the next function down on every iteration. In unuse_pte_range,
make a swap entry from each pte in the range using the passed in type.
If it has backing store in the type, call swapin_readahead to retrieve
the page, and then pass this page to unuse_pte.

TODO

* Find and correct where swap entries are being left behind
* Probably related: handle case of remaining reference in try_to_unuse
* Remove find_next_to_unuse, and the call to it in try_to_unuse,
when the previous item has been resolved
* Handle the failure of swapin_readahead in unuse_pte_range
* make sure unuse_pte_range is handling multiple ptes in the best way
* clean up after failure of unuse_pte in unuse_pte_range
* Determine the proper place for the mmlist locks in try_to_unuse
* Handle count of unused pages for frontswap
* Determine what kind of housekeeping shmem_unuse needs
* Tighten up the access control for all the various data structures
(for instance, the mutex on shmem_swaplist is held throughout the
entire process, which is probably not only unneccesary but problematic)
* Prevent radix entries with zero indices from being passed to
shmem_unuse_inode_index
* Decide if shmem_unuse_inode* should be combined into one function
* Find cases in which the errors returned from shmem_getpage_gfp can be
gracefully handled in shmem_unuse_inode_index, instead of just failing
* determine when old comments and housekeeping are no longer needed
(there are still some to serve as reminders of the housekeeping that
needs to be accounted for)
