Should do_swap_page() have the capability to directly map a large folio,
metadata restoration becomes necessary for a specified number of pages
denoted as nr. It's important to highlight that metadata restoration is
solely required by the SPARC platform, which, however, does not enable
THP_SWAP. Consequently, in the present kernel configuration, there
exists no practical scenario where users necessitate the restoration of
nr metadata. Platforms implementing THP_SWAP might invoke this function
with nr values exceeding 1, subsequent to do_swap_page() successfully
mapping an entire large folio. Nonetheless, their arch_do_swap_page_nr()
functions remain empty.

Looks good to me.
