My understanding may be wrong here, but can't the folio be moved to swapcache
asynchronously? How does the caller guarrantee that the folio is not in
swapcache and will not be moved between the call to
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order() and this test? If the caller can't prevent
it, then isn't it wrong to raise a warning here? Perhaps you just have to fail
to split?

I'm guessing this restriction is because swap only supports order-0 and
pmd-order folios currently? (And you only have split_swap_cluster() to downgrade
from pmd-order to order-0). Perhaps you need my series that allows swapping out
any order THP? Current version at [1] but I'm working on a new version.
