If you are using ext4, look for the "swapfile has holes <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207585>" message.   There is a kernel bug, but two proposed fixes, one looks like a quick hack, the other points to a more basic flaw in the implementation.

Interesting, I've only ever used "dd" to create swap files. Anyway, if you do run into this problem, there's a very simple fix.
