Huang Ying 1a5f439c7c mm, swap: fix THP swap out 
0-Day test system reported some OOM regressions for several THP
(Transparent Huge Page) swap test cases.  These regressions are bisected
to 6861428921 ("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256").  In the
commit, BIO_MAX_PAGES is set to 256 even when THP swap is enabled.  So the
bio_alloc(gfp_flags, 512) in get_swap_bio() may fail when swapping out
THP.  That causes the OOM.

As in the patch description of 6861428921 ("block: always define
BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"), THP swap should use multi-page bvec to write THP
to swap space.  So the issue is fixed via doing that in get_swap_bio().

BTW: I remember I have checked the THP swap code when 6861428921
("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256") was merged, and thought the
THP swap code needn't to be changed.  But apparently, I was wrong.  I
should have done this at that time.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
