Thanks for reviewing,

What I have deduced from the dmesg  is:
In function do_swap_page,
after invoking
3385        si = get_swap_device(entry); /* rcu_read_lock */
and before
3561    out:
3562        if (si)
3563            put_swap_device(si);
The thread got scheduled out in
3454        locked = lock_page_or_retry(page, vma->vm_mm, vmf->flags);

I am only familiar with Linux RCU subsystem, hope mm people can solve our
confusions.

I don't understamd why you're still talking.  The problem is understood.
You need to revert the unnecessary backport of 2799e77529c2 and
2efa33fc7f6e

Sorry for the delay, will go do so in a minute...

Both now reverted from 5.10.y and 5.13.y.

I browsed my previous backport notifying email and found that these two patches are also
backported into 5.12. And it seems it's missed.

5.12 is now end-of-life, it's not being touched anymore, and no one
should continue to use it.

thanks,

I see! Many thanks for your kindly explanation! :)
