can't cleanup /proc/swaps without rebooting ?

hi All,

Please could you cc me because I'm not subscribed.


is there a way, other than rebooting, to clean up /proc/swaps ?

I'm in this situation (due to testing errors),
# cat /proc/swaps
Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sdc1                               partition       2040064 0       -1
/tmp/swaH4mvTI/swapfilenext\040(deleted) file           48960   0       -31
/tmp/swa5TlBva/swapfilenext\040(deleted) file           49088   0       -118
#
# swapon -s
Filename                                Type            Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sdc1                               partition       2040064 0       -1
/tmp/swaH4mvTI/swapfilenext\040(deleted) file           48960   0       -31
/tmp/swa5TlBva/swapfilenext\040(deleted) file           49088   0       -118
