[PATCH] zswap: change BUG to WARN in zswap_writeback_entry

From: Dan Streetman <hidden>
Date: 2017-01-19 04:21:06
Subsystem: memory management, the rest, zswap compressed swap caching · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds, Johannes Weiner, Yosry Ahmed, Nhat Pham

Change the BUG calls to WARN, and return error.

There's no need to call BUG from this function, as it can safely return
the error.  The only caller of this function is the zpool that zswap is
using, when zswap is trying to reduce the zpool size.  While the error
does indicate a bug, as none of the WARN conditions should ever happen,
the zpool implementation can recover by trying to evict another page
or zswap will recover by sending the new page to the swap disk.

This was reported in kernel bug 192571:
