A question about pages in stacks



Let's imagine that when looking for a pege the kerneml a page who has
been part of a stack frame but since then the stack has shrunk so it
is no longer in it.  Will the kernel save it to disk or will it
recognize it as a page who despite what the dirty bit could say  is
in fact free and does not need to be saved?
