    nfs: enable swap on NFS · a564b8f0
    Mel Gorman authored
    Implement the new swapfile a_ops for NFS and hook up ->direct_IO.  This
    will set the NFS socket to SOCK_MEMALLOC and run socket reconnect under
    PF_MEMALLOC as well as reset SOCK_MEMALLOC before engaging the protocol
    ->connect() method.
    
    PF_MEMALLOC should allow the allocation of struct socket and related
    objects and the early (re)setting of SOCK_MEMALLOC should allow us to
    receive the packets required for the TCP connection buildup.
