Commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW logic in do_swap_page()") moved
the call to swap_free() before the call to set_pte_at(), which meant that
the MTE tags could end up being freed before set_pte_at() had a chance
to restore them. Fix it by adding a call to the arch_swap_restore() hook
before the call to swap_free().

v2:
- Call arch_swap_restore() directly instead of via arch_do_swap_page()

Looks much better to me, thanks :)
... staring at unuse_pte(), I suspect it also doesn't take care of MTE
tags and needs fixing?
