I tried something along these lines (though I think I messed up the offset
calculation which is why it wasn't working for me). My other concern
was with the case where SWAPFILE_CLUSTER was less than HPAGE_PMD_NR.
Don't we need to drop the lock and look up a new swap_cache if offset >=
SWAPFILE_CLUSTER?
