THP_SWAP has been proven to improve the swap throughput significantly on x86_64 system according to commit bd4c82c ("mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after swapped out"), on ARM64 system according to commit d0637c5 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") and on RISC-V system according to commit 87f81e6 ("riscv: enable THP_SWAP for RV64"). Enable THP_SWAP for LoongArch, testing the micro-benchmark which is introduced by commit d0637c5 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") shows below numbers on the Loongson-3A5000 board: swp out bandwidth w/o patch: 1815716 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests) swp out bandwidth w/ patch: 3410003 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests) Improved by 46.75%!
