Shadow_nodes is for shadow nodes reclaiming of workingset handling,
it is updated when page cache add or delete since long time ago
workingset only supported page cache. But when workingset supports
anonymous page detection, we missied updating shadow nodes for
it. This caused that shadow nodes of anonymous page will never be
reclaimd by scan_shadow_nodes() even they use much memory and
system memory is tense.
So update shadow_nodes of anonymous page when swap cache is
add or delete by calling xas_set_update(..workingset_update_node).

Decoding it, shadow_lru_isolate+0x3a/0x120 maps back to this line:
if (!spin_trylock(&mapping->host->i_lock)) {
i_lock is at offset 128 of struct inode, so that matches the dump.
I believe that swapper_spaces never have ->host set, so I don't
believe you've tested this patch since 51b8c1fe250d went in
back in 2021.
> What testing did you do of this? I have this crash in today's testing:
My test is this:
1.Configure zram for swap.
2.Run some program malloc and access large memory, make sure they
can cause swap.
3.Watch count_shadow_nodes() and shadow_lru_isolate() to make sure
that shadow_nodes are really shrinking by adding printk().
Really sorry for inadequate test, I will try more tests include drop_caches
by sysctl.

You are totally right. I reproduce the panic in linux-next, and fix
it by patch v4. I should be more careful, since I used Linux 5.14
to test the patch which is a mistake.
Much apologies for the time wasted.
Thanks.
