For LPAE, we support physical addresses of up to 36 bits (due to sparsemem limitations with the size of page flags), requiring 24 bits to represent a pfn. A further 3 bits are used to encode a swp_entry into a pte, leaving 5 bits for the type field. Furthermore, the core code defines MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT as 5, so the additional type bit does not get used. This patch reduces the width of the type field to 5 bits, allowing us to create up to 31 swapfiles of 64GB each.

This patch resets cd.epoch_cyc to the current value of read_sched_clock during resume, which causes sched_clock() just after suspend to return the same value as sched_clock() just before suspend. In addition, during the window where epoch_ns has been updated before suspend, but epoch_cyc has not been updated after suspend, it is unknown whether the clock has reset or not, and sched_clock() could return a bogus value.
