3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Richard Weinberger <rich...@nod.at>
commit 2b76ebaa728f8a3967c52aa189261c72fe56a6f1 upstream.
The current __swp_type() function uses a too small bitshift.
Using more than one swap files causes bad pages because
the type bits clash with other page flags.
