Subject: [PATCH] z3fold: fix wrong handling of headless pages

During the processing of headless pages in z3fold_reclaim_page(),
there was a problem that the zhdr pointed to another page
or a page was already released in z3fold_free(). So, the wrong page
is encoded in headless, or test_bit does not work properly
in z3fold_reclaim_page(). This patch fixed these problems.

thank you for your work, we've now got a more comprehensive solution:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/5/726

Would you please confirm that it works for you? Also, would you be
okay with dropping your patch in favor of the new one?

I could apply the new patch on top of yours but that would effectively
revert most of your changes.
Would it be ok for you if I add you to Signed-off-by for the new patch instead?

Yes, you are right.
I think that's the best way to deal it.
Thank you.
