mm: swap: extend swap_shmem_alloc() to support batch SWAP_MAP_SHMEM flag setting

Patch series "support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem", v5.

Shmem will support large folio allocation [1] [2] to get a better
performance, however, the memory reclaim still splits the precious large
folios when trying to swap-out shmem, which may lead to the memory
fragmentation issue and can not take advantage of the large folio for
shmeme.

Moreover, the swap code already supports for swapping out large folio
without split, and large folio swap-in[3] series is queued into
mm-unstable branch.  Hence this patch set also supports the large folio
swap-out and swap-in for shmem.


This patch (of 9):

To support shmem large folio swap operations, add a new parameter to
swap_shmem_alloc() that allows batch SWAP_MAP_SHMEM flag setting for shmem
swap entries.

While we are at it, using folio_nr_pages() to get the number of pages of
the folio as a preparation.
