84 * Due to the asynchronous nature of the backends loading potentially
85 * _after_ the swap system has been activated, we have chokepoints
86 * on all frontswap functions to not call the backend until the backend
87 * has registered.
88 *
89 * This would not guards us against the user deciding to call swapoff right as
90 * we are calling the backend to initialize (so swapon is in action).
91 * Fortunatly for us, the swapon_mutex has been taked by the callee so we are
92 * OK. The other scenario where calls to frontswap_store (called via
93 * swap_writepage) is racing with frontswap_invalidate_area (called via
94 * swapoff) is again guarded by the swap subsystem.
95 *
96 * While no backend is registered all calls to frontswap_[store|load|
97 * invalidate_area|invalidate_page] are ignored or fail.
98 *
99 * The time between the backend being registered and the swap file system
100 * calling the backend (via the frontswap_* functions) is indeterminate as
101 * frontswap_ops is not atomic_t (or a value guarded by a spinlock).
102 * That is OK as we are comfortable missing some of these calls to the newly
103 * registered backend.
104 *
105 * Obviously the opposite (unloading the backend) must be done after all
106 * the frontswap_[store|load|invalidate_area|invalidate_page] start
107 * ignoring or failing the requests. However, there is currently no way
108 * to unload a backend once it is registered.
