Subject: mm/migrate: fix shmem xarray update during migration

Pagecache uses multi-index entries for large folio, so does shmem. Only
swap cache still stores multiple entries for a single large folio. Commit
fc346d0a70a1 ("mm: migrate high-order folios in swap cache correctly")
fixed swap cache but got shmem wrong by storing multiple entries for a
large shmem folio.
This results in a soft lockup as reported by Liu Shixin.
Fix it by storing a single entry for a shmem folio.
