releasepage: releasepage is called on PagePrivate pages to indicate
that the page should be freed if possible. ->releasepage
should remove any private data from the page and clear the
- PagePrivate flag. It may also remove the page from the
- address_space. If this fails for some reason, it may indicate
- failure with a 0 return value.
- This is used in two distinct though related cases. The first
- is when the VM finds a clean page with no active users and
+ PagePrivate flag. If releasepage() fails for some reason, it must
+ indicate failure with a 0 return value.
+ releasepage() is used in two distinct though related cases. The
