right, that is why we are reading and checking PTE0 before calling
swap_pte_batch()
right now.

  folio_ptep =3D vmf->pte - idx;
  folio_pte =3D ptep_get(folio_ptep);
  if (!is_swap_pte(folio_pte) || non_swap_entry(pte_to_swp_entry(folio_pte)=
) ||
      swap_pte_batch(folio_ptep, nr, folio_pte, &any_swap_shared) !=3D nr)
   goto check_pte;

So, if I understand correctly, you're proposing that we should directly che=
ck
PTE0 in swap_pte_batch(). Personally, I don't have any objections to this i=
dea.
However, I'd also like to hear the feedback from Ryan and David :-)
