This is coming from WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order > MAX_PAGE_ORDER, gfp), and
is triggered by the new bitmap_zalloc() call in the swapon path. For a
sufficiently large swapfile, bitmap_zalloc() (which uses kmalloc()
under the hood) cannot be used to allocate the bitmap.

Usama, I think we want to use a variant of kvmalloc() here.
