[PATCH v3 2/3] mm: move folio LRU code out of swap

From: Jianyue Wu

Date: Mon Jun 01 2026 - 21:04:52 EST


Rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio_lru.c so the filename better matches
the code's main responsibility.

This keeps the implementation split from swap-specific code without
changing the published LRU helper interfaces.

Update MAINTAINERS and the remaining mm/swap.c documentation references
after the rename.
