commit701d678599upstream. In zs_destroy_pool() we call flush_work(&pool->free_work). However, we have no guarantee that migration isn't happening in the background at that time. Since migration can't directly free pages, it relies on free_work being scheduled to free the pages. But there's nothing preventing an in-progress migrate from queuing the work *after* zs_unregister_migration() has called flush_work(). Which would mean pages still pointing at the inode when we free it. Since we know at destroy time all objects should be free, no new migrations can come in (since zs_page_isolate() fails for fully-free zspages). This means it is sufficient to track a "# isolated zspages" count by class, and have the destroy logic ensure all such pages have drained before proceeding. Keeping that state under the class spinlock keeps the logic straightforward. In this case a memory leak could lead to an eventual crash if compaction hits the leaked page. This crash would only occur if people are changing their zswap backend at runtime (which eventually starts destruction).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
