page_file_offset is only needed for mixed usage of page cache and
swap cache, for pure page cache usage, the caller can just use
page_offset instead.

It can't be a swap cache page here, so just drop it and convert it to
use folio.

Wouldn't this make it harder to fix the regression when swap file support was temporarily removed from cifs.ko (due to the folio migration)?   I was hoping to come back to fixing swapfile support for cifs.ko in 6.10-rc (which used to pass the various xfstests for this but code got removed with folios/netfs changes).

It was neither the folio conversion nor the netfs conversion which
removed the claim of swap support from cifs, but NeilBrown's
introduction of ->swap_rw.  In commit e1209d3a7a67 he claims that

    Only two filesystems set SWP_FS_OPS:
    - cifs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO always fails so swap cannot work.
    - nfs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO calls generic_write_checks()
      which has failed on swap files for several releases.

As I recall the xfstests only checked that swapon/swapoff works; they
don't actually test that writing to swap and reading back from it work.

Makes sense - I will try to look at this fixing the swapon and reading from swap over smb3.1.1 mounts in the next few weeks, but if you have a good example of sample code (from one of the other FS that does this well) that would help.

Hi Steven,

I think this won't cause any trouble for that, the new swap_rw
interface should have splitted the swap cache from fs side, which made
the code struct cleaner, and I think that's the right path. NFS is
using that already. With this interface, .read_folio (cifs_read_folio)
should never be called for swap cache folios.
