Previously the SSD and HDD share the same swap_map scan loop in scan_swap_map_slots(). This function is complex and hard to flow the execution flow. scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() can already do most of the heavy lifting to locate the candidate swap range in the cluster. However it needs to go back to scan_swap_map_slots() to check conflict and then perform the allocation. When scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() failed, it still depended on the scan_swap_map_slots() to do brute force scanning of the swap_map. When the swapfile is large and almost full, it will take some CPU time to go through the swap_map array. Get rid of the cluster allocation dependency on the swap_map scan loop in scan_swap_map_slots(). Streamline the cluster allocation code path. No more conflict checks. For order 0 swap entry, when run out of free and nonfull list. It will allocate from the higher order nonfull cluster list. Users should see less CPU time spent on searching the free swap slot when swapfile is almost full.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
