8 commit aa9bca05a467c61dcea4142b2877d5392de5bdce upstream.
9
10 zswap_tree is not freed when swapoff, and it got re-kmalloced in swapon,
11 so a memory leak occurs.
12
13 Free the memory of zswap_tree in zswap_frontswap_invalidate_area().

20 Subject: mm/zswap: bugfix: memory leak when invalidate and reclaim occur concurrently
21 Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

23 Consider the following scenario:
24 thread 0: reclaim entry x (get refcount, but not call zswap_get_swap_cache_page)
25 thread 1: call zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page to invalidate entry x.
26 finished, entry x and its zbud is not freed as its refcount != 0
27 now, the swap_map[x] = 0
28 thread 0: now call zswap_get_swap_cache_page
29 swapcache_prepare return -ENOENT because entry x is not used any more
30 zswap_get_swap_cache_page return ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NOMEM
31 zswap_writeback_entry do nothing except put refcount
32 Now, the memory of zswap_entry x and its zpage leak.
33
34 Modify:
35 - check the refcount in fail path, free memory if it is not referenced.
36
37 - use ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_FAIL instead of ZSWAP_SWAPCACHE_NOMEM as the fail path
38 can be not only caused by nomem but also by invalidate.
