the plan is moving the whole code block
if (start_pte && folio_test_large(folio) && folio_test_swapcache(folio))
after
if (unlikely(!folio_test_uptodate(folio))) {
ret = VM_FAULT_SIGBUS;
goto out_nomap;
}
though we couldn't be !folio_test_uptodate(folio)) for hitting
swapcache but it seems
logically better for future use.

it seems your point is getting the pte of page0 by pte_next_swp_offset()
unfortunately pte_next_swp_offset can't go back. on the other hand,
we have to check the real pte value of the 0nd entry right now because
swap_pte_batch() only really reads pte from the 1st entry. it assumes
pte argument is the real value for the 0nd pte entry.
static inline int swap_pte_batch(pte_t *start_ptep, int max_nr, pte_t pte)
{
pte_t expected_pte = pte_next_swp_offset(pte);
const pte_t *end_ptep = start_ptep + max_nr;
pte_t *ptep = start_ptep + 1;
VM_WARN_ON(max_nr < 1);
VM_WARN_ON(!is_swap_pte(pte));
VM_WARN_ON(non_swap_entry(pte_to_swp_entry(pte)));
while (ptep < end_ptep) {
pte = ptep_get(ptep);
if (!pte_same(pte, expected_pte))
break;
expected_pte = pte_next_swp_offset(expected_pte);
ptep++;
}
return ptep - start_ptep;
}

i actually thought about this very carefully, right now, the only one who
needs this is sparc and it doesn't support THP_SWAPOUT at all. and
there is no proof doing restoration one by one won't really break sparc.
so i'd like to defer this to when sparc really needs THP_SWAPOUT.
on the other hand, it seems really bad we have both
arch_swap_restore - for this, arm64 has moved to using folio
and
arch_do_swap_page
we should somehow unify them later if sparc wants THP_SWPOUT.
