For normal cases without these special SWP flags code path falls back to __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() so the behaviour is expected to be the same as before. But swap_set_page_dirty() makes use of the page_swap_info() helper to get the swap_info_struct to check for the flags like SWP_FILE, SWP_BLKDEV etc as desired for those features. This helper has BUG_ON(!PageSwapCache(page)) which is racy and safe only for the set_page_dirty_lock() path. For the set_page_dirty() path which is often needed for cases to be called from irq context, kswapd() can toggle the flag behind the back while the call is getting executed when system is low on memory and heavy swapping is ongoing. This ends up with undesired kernel panic. This patch just moves the check outside the helper to its users appropriately to fix kernel panic for the described path. Couple of users of helpers already take care of SwapCache condition so I skipped them.
