These - notifications are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot - is freed. This statistic is applicable only when this disk is - being used as a swap disk. + The notify_free file is read-only.

The former ones + are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot is freed, which + implies that this disk is being used as a swap disk.
