I placed this in mm/swap.h so that during swap-in, it can filter out any large
folios where swap_zeromap_entries_count() is greater than 0 and less than
nr.

I believe this case would be quite rare, as it can only occur when some small
folios that are swapped out happen to have contiguous and aligned swap
slots.
