Subject: [PATCH -v2 06/10] mm, THP, swap: Support to clear SWAP_HAS_CACHE for huge page

From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@...el.com>

__swapcache_free() is added to support to clear the SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag
for the huge page.  This will free the specified swap cluster now.
Because now this function will be called only in the error path to free
the swap cluster just allocated.  So the corresponding swap_map[i] ==
SWAP_HAS_CACHE, that is, the swap count is 0.  This makes the
implementation simpler than that of the ordinary swap entry.

This will be used for delaying splitting THP (Transparent Huge Page)
during swapping out.  Where for one THP to swap out, we will allocate a
swap cluster, add the THP into the swap cache, then split the THP.  If
anything fails after allocating the swap cluster and before splitting
the THP successfully, the swapcache_free_trans_huge() will be used to
free the swap space allocated.
