Subject: [PATCH -mm -v11 3/5] mm, THP, swap: Move anonymous THP split logic to vmscan

From: Minchan Kim <minchan@...nel.org>

The add_to_swap aims to allocate swap_space(ie, swap slot and
swapcache) so if it fails due to lack of space in case of THP
or something(hdd swap but tries THP swapout) *caller* rather
than add_to_swap itself should split the THP page and retry it
with base page which is more natural.
