From ace7fab7a6cdd363a615ec537f2aa94dbc761ee2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hansen Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2016 10:23:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: Fix swap entry comment and macro A recent patch changed the format of a swap PTE. The comment explaining the format of the swap PTE is wrong about the bits used for the swap type field. Amusingly, the ASCII art and the patch description are correct, but the comment itself is wrong. As I was looking at this, I also noticed that the SWP_OFFSET_FIRST_BIT has an off-by-one error. This does not really hurt anything. It just wasted a bit of space in the PTE, giving us 2^59 bytes of addressable space in our swapfiles instead of 2^60. But, it doesn't match with the comments, and it wastes a bit of space, so fix it.
