Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Revert "mm/shmem: fix shmem_swapin() race with swapoff"
Date:   Tue, 10 Aug 2021 13:29:35 -0700

Due to the change about how block layer detects congestion the
justification of commit 8fd2e0b505d1 ("mm: swap: check if swap backing device
is congested or not") doesn't stand anymore, so the commit could be just
reverted in order to solve the race reported by commit 2efa33fc7f6e ("mm/shmem:
fix shmem_swapin() race with swapoff"), so the fix commit could be just
reverted as well.
