David Hildenbrand 3689c3ebdd fs/proc/task_mmu: account non-present entries as "maybe shared, but no idea how often"
We currently rely on mapcount information for pages referenced by
non-present entries to calculate the USS (shared vs.  private) and the
PSS.

However, relying on mapcounts for non-present entries doesn't make any
sense.  We have to treat such entries as "maybe shared, but no idea how
often", implying that they will *not* get accounted towards the USS, and
will get fully accounted to the PSS (no idea how often shared).

There is one exception: device exclusive entries essentially behave like
present entries (e.g., mapcount incremented).

In smaps_pmd_entry(), use is_pfn_swap_entry() instead of
is_migration_entry(), which should not make a real difference but makes
the code look more similar to the PTE variant.

While at it, adjust the comments in smaps_account().

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 reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
