[PATCHv2 09/24] sys_swapon: remove did_down variable

From: Cesar Eduardo Barros <hidden>
Date: 2011-03-01 23:29:02
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - swap, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Chris Li, Kairui Song, Linus Torvalds

Since mutex_lock(&inode->i_mutex) is called just after setting inode,
did_down is always equivalent to (inode && S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)).

Use this fact to remove the did_down variable.
