On a second look, there a few nits here.

First I think it makes more sense to move this refactoring ahead of
reusing destmem. Right now, we add the destmem reuse to zswap_load()
only, then we do the refactor and zswap_writeback_entry() gets it
automatically, so there is a slight change coming to
zswap_writeback_entry() hidden in the refactoring patch.

Let's refactor out __zswap_load() first, then reuse destmem in it.

We should pass PAGE_SIZE here directly, BUG_ON(acomp_ctx->req->dlen)
below, and remove the dlen variable.

We should just BUG_ON() here directly an remove the ret variable.

Ok, will put it first.

I tried but found that putting the __zswap_load() first would introduce
another failure case in zswap_writeback_entry(), since the temporary
memory allocation may fail.

So instead, I also move the dstmem reusing in zswap_writeback_entry() to
the dstmem reusing patch. Then this patch becomes having only refactoring.

Thanks.

We could have still refactored __zswap_load() first by making it
return an int initially when split, then void later. Anyway, it's not
a big deal. The new series looks fine.
