If there are errors during swap read or write, they can easily fill the log buffer and remove any previous messages that might be useful for debugging, especially on systems that rely for logging only on the kernel ring-buffer. For example, on a systems using zram as swap, we are more likely to see any page allocation errors preceding the swap write errors if the alerts are ratelimited.
