    mm: slightly clarify KSM logic in do_swap_page() · 84d60fdd
    David Hildenbrand authored
    Let's make it clearer that KSM might only have to copy a page in case we
    have a page in the swapcache, not if we allocated a fresh page and
    bypassed the swapcache.  While at it, add a comment why this is usually
    necessary and merge the two swapcache conditions.
    
    [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment, per David]
