If a filesystem wishes to handle all swap IO itself (via ->direct_IO and ->readpage), rather than just providing devices addresses for submit_bio(), SWP_FS_OPS must be set. Currently the protocol for setting this it to have ->swap_activate return zero. In that case SWP_FS_OPS is set, and add_swap_extent() is called for the entire file. This is a little clumsy as different return values for ->swap_activate have quite different meanings, and it makes it hard to search for which filesystems require SWP_FS_OPS to be set. So remove the special meaning of a zero return, and require the filesystem to set SWP_FS_OPS if it so desires, and to always call add_swap_extent() as required. Currently only NFS and CIFS return zero for add_swap_extent().

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 Restructured Text 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.
