Subject: mm, swap: consolidate bad slots setup and make it more robust
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 04:06:29 +0800
In preparation for using the swap table to track bad slots directly, move
the bad slot setup to one place, set up the swap_map mark, and cluster
counter update together.
While at it, provide more informative logs and a more robust fallback if
any bad slot info looks incorrect.
Fixes a potential issue that a malformed swap file may cause the cluster
to be unusable upon swapon, and provides a more verbose warning on a
malformed swap file
