Subject: [PATCH] [4/16] HWPOISON: Add support for poison swap entries v2


CPU migration uses special swap entry types to trigger special actions on page
faults. Extend this mechanism to also support poisoned swap entries, to trigger
poison handling on page faults. This allows followon patches to prevent 
processes from faulting in poisoned pages again.

v2: Fix overflow in MAX_SWAPFILES (Fengguang Wu)
