Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)

Pull updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of -mm and quite a number of other subsystems: hotfixes, scripts,
  ocfs2, misc, lib, binfmt, init, reiserfs, exec, dma-mapping, kcov.

  MM is fairly quiet this time.  Holidays, I assume"

@@ -130,6 +130,19 @@ checking for the same-value filled pages during store operation. However, the
 existing pages which are marked as same-value filled pages remain stored
 unchanged in zswap until they are either loaded or invalidated.
 
+To prevent zswap from shrinking pool when zswap is full and there's a high
+pressure on swap (this will result in flipping pages in and out zswap pool
+without any real benefit but with a performance drop for the system), a
+special parameter has been introduced to implement a sort of hysteresis to
+refuse taking pages into zswap pool until it has sufficient space if the limit
+has been hit. To set the threshold at which zswap would start accepting pages
+again after it became full, use the sysfs ``accept_threhsold_percent``
+attribute, e. g.::
+
+	echo 80 > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/accept_threhsold_percent
+
+Setting this parameter to 100 will disable the hysteresis.

 A debugfs interface is provided for various statistic about pool size, number
 of pages stored, same-value filled pages and various counters for the reasons
 pages are rejected.
