From
Subject[RFC 2/3] mm: Add a new page flag PageLayzyFree() for MADV_FREE
Date
From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com>

Now !PageSwapBacked() is used as the flag for the pages freed lazily
via MADV_FREE. This isn't obvious enough. So Dave suggested to add a
new page flag for that to improve the code readability.
