[merged] mm-swap-skip-swapcache-for-swapin-of-synchronous-device.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-swap-skip-swapcache-for-swapin-of-synchronous-device.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device

With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively
and swap-in is crucial to application latency.

The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage.  When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4 decompress
test, S/W overhead is more than 70%.  Maybe, it would be bigger in nvdimm.

This patch aims to reduce swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the
swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device.  It enhances
45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead, from 2.41sec to
1.64sec).
