Subject: [PATCH 07/18] MM: submit multipage write for SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
swap_writepage() is given one page at a time, but may be called repeatedly
in succession.
For block-device swapspace, the blk_plug functionality allows the
multiple pages to be combined together at lower layers.
That cannot be used for SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is
only active when CONFIG_BLOCK=y. Consequently all swap reads over NFS
are single page reads.
With this patch we pass a pointer-to-pointer via the wbc.
swap_writepage can store state between calls - much like the pointer
passed explicitly to swap_readpage. After calling swap_writepage() some
number of times, the state will be passed to swap_write_unplug() which
can submit the combined request.
