So, with large folio swapin, we would never end up here if any swp PTE
is !exclusive, because we would make sure to allocate a large folio only
for suitable regions, correct?
It can certainly happen during swapout + refault with large folios. But
there, we will always have folio_test_anon() still set and wouldn't run
into this code path.
(it will all be better with per-folio PAE bit, but that will take some
more time until I actually get to implement it properly, handling all
the nasty corner cases)
Better add a comment regarding why we are sure that the complete thing
is exclusive (e.g., currently only small folios).
