This commit header and patch make little sense to me.
If you're concerned about a normal (non-root) user having read access
to the swap device then disallow non-root user access permissions on
the swap device.
Why is an encrypted swap device any different than any other encrypted
device?
As is, this patch seems to be the wrong way to achieve your desired
result. If you or someone else on the chromium team can better
defend/explain the need for this change please do so.
Thanks,
Mike
