it's not clear why this triggered, bad_page only shows the "master"
compound page and not the contents of the slave page that triggered the
bad_page. Can you try again with this incremental patch applied?
Thanks!

this incrmental bit made some harmless warning go away from swap resume,
but it didn't fix swap resume completely yet OTOH I'm not sure anymore
if there's any further VM issue or if it's a swap suspend issue. the
PageCompound bugcheck would already trap any compound page in
rw_swap_page_sync, so I'm sure nobody tried to swap compound pages in
swap resume, and I'm also sure that the page->count is now correct, or
free_pages_check would trigger. I cannot trigger any further bugcheck
here (and the above patch only shutdown some false positive that
couldn't hurt functionality, plus it adds further bugchecks).
