Subject: [PATCH 3.16 072/131] ia64: drop _PAGE_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 636a002b704e0a36cefb5f4cf0293fab858fc46c upstream.

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

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