mm, swap: Add infrastructure for saving page metadata on swap
If a processor supports special metadata for a page, for example ADI version tags on SPARC M7, this metadata must be saved when the page is swapped out. The same metadata must be restored when the page is swapped back in. This patch adds two new architecture specific functions - arch_do_swap_page() to be called when a page is swapped in, and arch_unmap_one() to be called when a page is being unmapped for swap out. These architecture hooks allow page metadata to be saved if the architecture supports it.
