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.

Description: Enable/disable VMA based swap readahead.
If set to true, the VMA based swap readahead algorithm
will be used for swappable anonymous pages mapped in a
VMA, and the global swap readahead algorithm will be
still used for tmpfs etc. other users. If set to
false, the global swap readahead algorithm will be
used for all swappable pages.

Description: The max readahead size in order for VMA based swap readahead
VMA based swap readahead algorithm will readahead at
most 1 << max_order pages for each readahead. The
real readahead size for each readahead will be scaled
according to the estimation algorithm.
