[PATCH 23/24] sys_swapoff: change order to match sys_swapon

From: Cesar Eduardo Barros <hidden>
Date: 2011-02-12 18:49:49
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - swap, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Chris Li, Kairui Song, Linus Torvalds

The block in sys_swapon which does the final adjustments to the
swap_info_struct and to swap_list is the same as the block which
re-inserts it again at sys_swapoff on failure of try_to_unuse(), except
for the order of the operations within the lock. Since the order should
not matter, arbitrarily change sys_swapoff to match sys_swapon, in
preparation to making both share the same code.
