Hello Johannes, thank you for your comment.

The name can changed from layzyfree to was_swapbacked.
By the way, did you mean removing PageAnon(page), too? It seems to be OK, though.

Sorry but I'm confused.
I think you meant additional comment to previous your comment
rather than you wanted to rename stat->nr_lazyfree_fail to stat->was_lazyfree.

I will add nr_ prefix on next patch.

This patch uses stat.nr_lazyfree_fail, I do not understand why it is still dummy_stat.
If you want, I will keep dummy_stat, though.

Thank you
