[PATCH V2] mm/powerpc: Fix _PAGE_PTE breaking swapoff

["Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Core kernel expect swp_entry_t to be consisting of
only swap type and swap offset. We should not leak pte bits to
swp_entry_t. This breaks swapoff which use the swap type and offset
to build a swp_entry_t and later compare that to the swp_entry_t
obtained from linux page table pte. Leaking pte bits to swp_entry_t
breaks that comparison and results in us looping in try_to_unuse.

The stack trace can be anywhere below try_to_unuse() in mm/swapfile.c,
since swapoff is circling around and around that function, reading from
each used swap block into a page, then trying to find where that page
belongs, looking at every non-file pte of every mm that ever swapped.
