Remember that ironic get_user_pages race? when the raised page_count on a page swapped out led do_wp_page to decide that it had to copy on write, so substituted a different page into userspace. 2.6.7 onwards have Andrea's solution, where try_to_unmap_one backs out if it finds page_count raised. Which works, but is unsatisfying (rmap.c has no other page_count heuristics), and was found a few months ago to hang an intensive page migration test. A year ago I was hesitant to engage page_mapcount, now it seems the right fix. So remove the page_count hack from try_to_unmap_one; and use activate_page in unuse_mm when dropping lock, to replace its secondary effect of helping swapoff to make progress in that case. Simplify can_share_swap_page (now called only on anonymous pages) to check page_mapcount + page_swapcount == 1: still needs the page lock to stabilize their (pessimistic) sum, but does not need swapper_space.tree_lock for that. In do_swap_page, move swap_free and unlock_page below page_add_anon_rmap, to keep sum on the high side, and correct when can_share_swap_page called.
