mm/swap: introduce struct swap_io_ctx

Browse source

Generalize the context currently provided by double pointers to struct
swap_iocb to an on-stack context.  This cleans up the code and prepares
for adding more fields and supporting batching multiple folios into a
single bio for block-based swap as well.

This new swap_io_ctx is required for all functions using it, the old way
of allowing a NULL iocb for some callers is removed to keep the interface
consistent.  To reduce code duplication caused by this, a new
swap_cache_read_folio_sync helper is added to consolidate the code to call
swap_cache_read_folio with a local swap_io_ctx.

The unpug helpers are renamed to use the submit wording as they are
generalized.
