mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP
Patch series "mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP + cleanups". This series stops using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP, replaces folio->private by folio->swap for swapcache folios, and starts using "new_folio" for tail pages that we are splitting to remove the usage of page->private for swapcache handling completely. This patch (of 4): Let's stop using page->private on tail pages, making it possible to just unconditionally reuse that field in the tail pages of large folios. The remaining usage of the private field for THP_SWAP is in the THP splitting code (mm/huge_memory.c), that we'll handle separately later. Update the THP_SWAP documentation and sanity checks in mm_types.h and __split_huge_page_tail().
