Huang Ying d9bfcfdc41 mm, swap: add sysfs interface for VMA based swap readahead
The sysfs interface to control the VMA based swap readahead is added as
follow,

/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_enabled

Enable the VMA based swap readahead algorithm, or use the original
global swap readahead algorithm.

/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order

Set the max order of the readahead window size for the VMA based swap
readahead algorithm.

The corresponding ABI documentation is added too.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
