possible bug?: there are code paths that assign to vmf-pte below in this
function, so couldn't start_pte be stale in some cases? I'd just do the
assignment (all 4 of these variables in fact) in an else clause below, after any
messing about with them is complete.

nit: rename start_pte -> start_ptep ?

Suggest you defer initialization of this to your "We hit large folios in
swapcache" block below, and init it to:

	any_swap_shared = !pte_swp_exclusive(vmf->pte);

Then the any_shared semantic in swap_pte_batch() can be the same as for
folio_pte_batch().

bug: vmf->pte may be NULL and you are not checking it until check_pte:. Byt you
are using it in this block. It also seems odd to do all the work in the below
block under the PTL but before checking if the pte has changed. Suggest moving
both checks here.

What's the start_pte check protecting?

If you init any_shared with the firt pte as I suggested then you could just set
exclusive = !any_shared at the top of this if block without needing this
separate fixup.

I'm not sure about all this... you are smearing these SW bits from the faulting
PTE across all the ptes you are mapping. Although I guess actually that's ok
because swap_pte_batch() only returns a batch with all these bits the same?

> -	vmf->orig_pte = pte;

Instead of doing a readback below, perhaps:

	vmf->orig_pte = pte_advance_pfn(pte, nr_pages);
