From: Yu Zhao <yuzhao@google.com>
Subject: mm/swap: don't SetPageWorkingset unconditionally during swapin

We are capable of SetPageWorkingset based on refault distances after
commit aae466b0052e ("mm/swap: implement workingset detection for
anonymous LRU") This is done by workingset_refault(), which is right above
the unconditional SetPageWorkingset deleted by this patch.

The unconditional SetPageWorkingset miscategorizes pages that are read
ahead or never belonged to the working set (e.g., tmpfs pages accessed by
fd).  When those pages are swapped in (after they were swapped out) for
the first time, they skew PSI (when using async swap).  When this happens
again, depending on their refault distances, they might skew
workingset_restore_anon counter in addition to PSI because their shadows
say they were part of the working set.
