IIUC, after the change, we will always use cluster readahead for
swapoff. This may be OK. But, at least we need some test results which
show that this will not cause any issue for this behavior change. And
the behavior change should be described explicitly in patch description.
And I don't think it's a good abstraction to make swapin_entry_mpol()
always use cluster swapin, while swapin_entry() will try to use vma
swapin. I think we can add "struct mempolicy *mpol" and "pgoff_t ilx"
to swapin_entry() as parameters, and use them if vmf == NULL. If we
want to enforce cluster swapin in swapoff path, it will be better to add
some comments to describe why.
