Subject: [PATCH 6.0 19/20] mm/huge_memory: do not clobber swp_entry_t during THP split

From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@...hsingularity.net>

commit 71e2d666ef85d51834d658830f823560c402b8b6 upstream.

The following has been observed when running stressng mmap since commit
b653db77350c ("mm: Clear page->private when splitting or migrating a page")

The problem can be reproduced with the mmtests config
config-workload-stressng-mmap.  It does not always happen and when it
triggers is variable but it has happened on multiple machines.

The intent of commit b653db77350c patch was to avoid the case where
PG_private is clear but folio->private is not-NULL.  However, THP tail
pages uses page->private for "swp_entry_t if folio_test_swapcache()" as
stated in the documentation for struct folio.  This patch only clobbers
page->private for tail pages if the head page was not in swapcache and
warns once if page->private had an unexpected value.
