The patch titled
     Subject: mm, THP, swap: add get_huge_swap_page()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-thp-swap-add-get_huge_swap_page.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

------------------------------------------------------
From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, THP, swap: add get_huge_swap_page()

A variation of get_swap_page(), get_huge_swap_page(), is added to allocate
a swap cluster (HPAGE_PMD_NR swap slots) based on the swap cluster
allocation function.  A fair simple algorithm is used, that is, only the
first swap device in priority list will be tried to allocate the swap
cluster.  The function will fail if the trying is not successful, and the
caller will fallback to allocate a single swap slot instead.  This works
good enough for normal cases.

This will be used for the THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap support.  Where
get_huge_swap_page() will be used to allocate one swap cluster for each
THP swapped out.

Because of the algorithm adopted, if the difference of the number of the
free swap clusters among multiple swap devices is significant, it is
possible that some THPs are split earlier than necessary.  For example,
this could be caused by big size difference among multiple swap devices.
