Subject: [PATCH -mm -v2 07/12] mm, THP, swap: Support to split THP for THP swapped out

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

After adding swapping out support for THP (Transparent Huge Page), it
is possible that a THP in swap cache (partly swapped out) need to be
split.  To split such a THP, the swap cluster backing the THP need to
be split too, that is, the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag need to be cleared
for the swap cluster.  The patch implemented this.

And because the THP swap writing needs the THP keeps as huge page
during writing.  The PageWriteback flag is checked before splitting.
