[PATCH RFC 1/6] arm64: mm: swap: support THP_SWAP on hardware with MTE

From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx>

Commit d0637c505f8a1 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") brings up
THP_SWAP on ARM64, but it doesn't enable THP_SWP on hardware with
MTE as the MTE code works with the assumption tags save/restore is
always handling a folio with only one page.

The limitation should be removed as more and more ARM64 SoCs have
this feature. Co-existence of MTE and THP_SWAP becomes more and
more important.

This patch makes MTE tags saving support large folios, then we don't
need to split large folios into base pages for swapping out on ARM64
SoCs with MTE any more.

arch_prepare_to_swap() should take folio rather than page as parameter
because we support THP swap-out as a whole. It saves tags for all
pages in a large folio.

As now we are restoring tags based-on folio, in arch_swap_restore(),
we may increase some extra loops and early-exitings while refaulting
a large folio which is still in swapcache in do_swap_page(). In case
a large folio has nr pages, do_swap_page() will only set the PTE of
the particular page which is causing the page fault.
Thus do_swap_page() runs nr times, and each time, arch_swap_restore()
will loop nr times for those subpages in the folio. So right now the
algorithmic complexity becomes O(nr^2).

Once we support mapping large folios in do_swap_page(), extra loops
and early-exitings will decrease while not being completely removed
as a large folio might get partially tagged in corner cases such as,
1. a large folio in swapcache can be partially unmapped, thus, MTE
tags for the unmapped pages will be invalidated;
2. users might use mprotect() to set MTEs on a part of a large folio.

arch_thp_swp_supported() is dropped since ARM64 MTE was the only one
who needed it.
