SubjectRe: [PATCH] mm/zswap: Check all pool pages instead of one pool pages
Hello,

True but this patch is rather costly that we should iterate
zswap_tree[MAX_SWAPFILES] to check it. SIGH.

How about defining zswap_tress as linked list instead of static
array? Then, we could reduce unnecessary iteration too much.

Other question:
Why do we need to update zswap_pool_pages too frequently?
As I read the code, I think it's okay to update it only when user
want to see it by debugfs and zswap_is_full is called.
So could we optimize it out?
