Maybe no need in the first version to fix the immediate bug?

It's also not always the case to hit writeback here. IIUC, writeback only
happens for a short window when the folio was just added into swapcache.
MOVE can happen much later after that anytime before a swapin.  My
understanding is that's also what Matthew wanted to point out.  It may be
better justified of that in a separate change with some performance
measurements.
