To support large folio swapin for shmem in the following patches, add large folio allocation for the new replacement folio in shmem_replace_folio(). Moreover large folios occupy N consecutive entries in the swap cache instead of using multi-index entries like the page cache, therefore we should replace each consecutive entries in the swap cache instead of using the shmem_replace_entry(). As well as updating statistics and folio reference count using the number of pages in the folio.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
