Assume x86 system with 8G memory, swapped_maxcount is maybe 5G+ here.
Then, swapped_entry can consume 5G/PAGE_SIZE * 16bytes = 10 M byte more slabs from
ZONE_NORMAL. Could you add check like this?

void add_to_swapped_list(struct page *page)
{

if (!swap_prefetch)
return;
spin_lcok(&spwapped.lock);
}
