Ingo,

Looking at find_get_swapcache_page(), I can't see _how_ we can find a
page on the swapper pagecache table that is not a swapcache page.

How that can happen ?

spin_lock(&pagecache_lock);
page = __find_page_nolock(mapping, offset, *hash);
if (page) {
spin_lock(&pagemap_lru_lock);
if (PageSwapCache(page))
page_cache_get(page);
else
page = NULL; <-----
spin_unlock(&pagemap_lru_lock);
}
spin_unlock(&pagecache_lock);
