James reported a bug in swap paging-in from his testing. It is that do_swap_page doesn't release locked page so system hang-up happens due to a deadlock on PG_locked. It was introduced by 0bcac06f27d7 ("mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device") because I missed swap cache hit places to update swapcache variable to work well with other logics against swapcache in do_swap_page. This patch fixes it. Debugged by James Bottomley.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
