Subject: [PATCH 3.16 064/131] arm64: drop PTE_FILE and pte_file()-related
 helpers

3.16.59-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>

commit 9b3e661e58b90b0c2d5c2168c23408f1e59e9e35 upstream.

We've replaced remap_file_pages(2) implementation with emulation.  Nobody
creates non-linear mapping anymore.

This patch also adjust __SWP_TYPE_SHIFT and increase number of bits
availble for swap offset.
