As preparation for supporting small-sized THP in the swap-out path, without first needing to split to order-0, Remove the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE, which, when present, always implies PMD-sized THP, which is the same as the cluster size. The only use of the flag was to determine whether a swap entry refers to a single page or a PMD-sized THP in swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). Instead of relying on the flag, we now pass in nr_pages, which originates from the folio's number of pages. This allows the logic to work for folios of any order. The one snag is that one of the swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() call sites does not have the folio. But it was only being called there to shortcut a call __try_to_reclaim_swap() in some cases. __try_to_reclaim_swap() gets the folio and (via some other functions) calls swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). So I've removed the problematic call site and believe the new logic should be functionally equivalent. That said, removing the fast path means that we will take a reference and trylock a large folio much more often, which we would like to avoid. The next patch will solve this. Removing CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE also means we can remove split_swap_cluster() which used to be called during folio splitting, since split_swap_cluster()'s only job was to remove the flag.
