Hey Nhat,

I have a few more comments, sorry for not catching everything the first
time around.

I think allocate_and_read_bytes() is easier to read, but I don't feel
strongly about it.

cgroup_util.h defines PAGE_SIZE, see alloc_anon() for example.

On that note, alloc_anon() is awfully close to allocate_bytes() below,
perhaps we should consolidate them. The only difference I see is that
alloc_anon() does not check for the allocation failure, but a lot of
functions in cgroup_helpers.c don't, so it seems intentional for
simplification.

I think this comment is unnecessary.

I think this comment is unnecessary.

If we want to be really meticulous, we can verify that we did swap out,
but not to zswap. IOW, we can check memory.swap.current or something.

nit: This can be a separate if condition, I think it would be more
inline with the style of separate consecutive if blocks we are
following.

We can probably avoid the line break with something more concise, for
example:
"zswapout > 0 when zswap is disabled"
or "zswapout > 0 when memory.zswap.max = 0"

I think test_zswapin() is enough to be distinct from
test_swapin_nozswap(). The limit is not a factor here AFAICT.

We should probably check for a positive zswapin here, no?
