From 89d09a2c80ea6baafb559b86d545fada05e14ab5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Dickins Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2005 15:54:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] swap: freeing update swap_list.next This makes negligible difference in practice: but swap_list.next should not be updated to a higher prio in the general helper swap_info_get, but rather in swap_entry_free; and then only in the case when entry is actually freed.
