[PATCH -V6 03/21] swap: Support PMD swap mapping in swap_duplicate()

To support to swapin the THP in one piece, we need to create PMD swap
mapping during swapout, and maintain PMD swap mapping count. This
patch implements the support to increase the PMD swap mapping
count (for swapout, fork, etc.) and set SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag (for
swapin, etc.) for a huge swap cluster in swap_duplicate() function
family. Although it only implements a part of the design of the swap
reference count with PMD swap mapping, the whole design is described
as follow to make it easy to understand the patch and the whole
picture.

A huge swap cluster is used to hold the contents of a swapouted THP.
After swapout, a PMD page mapping to the THP will become a PMD
swap mapping to the huge swap cluster via a swap entry in PMD. While
a PTE page mapping to a subpage of the THP will become the PTE swap
mapping to a swap slot in the huge swap cluster via a swap entry in
PTE.

If there is no PMD swap mapping and the corresponding THP is removed
from the page cache (reclaimed), the huge swap cluster will be split
and become a normal swap cluster.

The count (cluster_count()) of the huge swap cluster is
SWAPFILE_CLUSTER (= HPAGE_PMD_NR) + PMD swap mapping count. Because
all swap slots in the huge swap cluster are mapped by PTE or PMD, or
has SWAP_HAS_CACHE bit set, the usage count of the swap cluster is
HPAGE_PMD_NR. And the PMD swap mapping count is recorded too to make
it easy to determine whether there are remaining PMD swap mappings.

The count in swap_map[offset] is the sum of PTE and PMD swap mapping
count. This means when we increase the PMD swap mapping count, we
need to increase swap_map[offset] for all swap slots inside the swap
cluster. An alternative choice is to make swap_map[offset] to record
PTE swap map count only, given we have recorded PMD swap mapping count
in the count of the huge swap cluster. But this need to increase
swap_map[offset] when splitting the PMD swap mapping, that may fail
because of memory allocation for swap count continuation. That is
hard to dealt with. So we choose current solution.

The PMD swap mapping to a huge swap cluster may be split when unmap a
part of PMD mapping etc. That is easy because only the count of the
huge swap cluster need to be changed. When the last PMD swap mapping
is gone and SWAP_HAS_CACHE is unset, we will split the huge swap
cluster (clear the huge flag). This makes it easy to reason the
cluster state.

A huge swap cluster will be split when splitting the THP in swap
cache, or failing to allocate THP during swapin, etc. But when
splitting the huge swap cluster, we will not try to split all PMD swap
mappings, because we haven't enough information available for that
sometimes. Later, when the PMD swap mapping is duplicated or swapin,
etc, the PMD swap mapping will be split and fallback to the PTE
operation.

When a THP is added into swap cache, the SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag will be
set in the swap_map[offset] of all swap slots inside the huge swap
cluster backing the THP. This huge swap cluster will not be split
unless the THP is split even if its PMD swap mapping count dropped to
0. Later, when the THP is removed from swap cache, the SWAP_HAS_CACHE
flag will be cleared in the swap_map[offset] of all swap slots inside
the huge swap cluster. And this huge swap cluster will be split if
its PMD swap mapping count is 0.

The first parameter of swap_duplicate() is changed to return the swap
entry to call add_swap_count_continuation() for. Because we may need
to call it for a swap entry in the middle of a huge swap cluster.
