[PATCHv2 2/2] zram: clear IDLE flag in mark_idle()
Posted by Sergey Senozhatsky 3 weeks, 6 days ago
If entry does not fulfill current mark_idle() parameters, e.g.
cutoff time, then we should clear its ZRAM_IDLE from previous
mark_idle() invocations.

Consider the following case:
- mark_idle() cutoff time 8h
- mark_idle() cutoff time 4h
- writeback() idle - will writeback entries with cutoff time 8h,
  while it should only pick entries with cutoff time 4h

The bug was reported by Shin Kawamura.

This is how it was in v1, but that triggered a warn

    WARNING: Reported-by: should be immediately followed by Closes: with a URL to the report
    #16:
    Reported-by: Shin Kawamura <kawasin@google.com>
    Signed-off-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org>

so I switched to less "formal" reported-by tag in v2.
