[PATCH v3 1/3] mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from do_swap_page()

From: Peter Collingbourne <hidden>
Date: 2023-05-17 02:21:32
Also in: linux-mm, lkml, stable
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - core, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance
to restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().
