Subject: [PATCH RFC] mm/swap: make release_pages() and put_pages() match
Date:   Fri, 24 May 2019 12:34:15 -0700

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com>

RFC I have no idea if this is correct or not.  But looking at
release_pages() I see a call to both __ClearPageActive() and
__ClearPageWaiters() while in __page_cache_release() I do not.

Is this a bug which needs to be fixed?  Did I miss clearing active
somewhere else in the call chain of put_page?

This was found via code inspection while determining if release_pages()
and the new put_user_pages() could be interchangeable.
