Nice idea.

I would make this take a struct page * and just one 'ret'.

page_size(page)?

We talked about swap_file_pos(), right?

What if it returns a short read?

Seems a shame to set up the bio_vec and iov_iter twice.  Maybe call:

	iov_iter_bvec(&to, READ, &bv, 1, thp_size(page));

before swapfile_read_sync() and pass a pointer to 'to' to
swapfile_read_sync?
