Subject: [PATCH] mm, THP, swap: don't allocate huge cluster for file backed
 swap device

It's hard to write a whole transparent huge page (THP) to a file backed
swap device during swapping out and the file backed swap device isn't
very popular.  So the huge cluster allocation for the file backed swap
device is disabled.
