mm: frontswap: fix a wrong if condition in frontswap_shrink
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
pages_to_unuse is set to 0 to unuse all frontswap pages
But that doesn't happen since a wrong condition in frontswap_shrink
cancel it.

-v2: Add comment to explain return value of __frontswap_shrink,
as suggested by Dan Carpenter, thanks
