[PATCH -mm] mm, swap: Fix false error message in __swp_swapcount()

From: Huang, Ying
Date: Mon Oct 23 2017 - 22:47:34 EST


From: Ying Huang <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>

__swp_swapcount() is used in __read_swap_cache_async(). Where the
invalid swap entry (offset > max) may be supplied during swap
readahead. But __swp_swapcount() will print error message for these
expected invalid swap entry as below, which will make the users
confusing.

swap_info_get: Bad swap offset entry 0200f8a7

So the swap entry checking code in __swp_swapcount() is changed to
avoid printing error message for it. To avoid to duplicate code with
__swap_duplicate(), a new helper function named
__swap_info_get_silence() is added and invoked in both places.
