Subject: [PATCH] mm: zswap: fix the lack of page lru flag in  zswap_writeback_entry

The zswap_writeback_entry() will add a page to the swap cache, decompress
the entry data into the page, and issue a bio write to write the page back
to the swap device. Move the page to the tail of lru list  through
SetPageReclaim(page) and folio_rotate_reclaimable().

Currently, about half of the pages will fail to move to the tail of lru
list because there is no LRU flag in page which is not in the LRU list but
the cpu_fbatches. So fix it.
