My only open for the implementation is where to swap? If it is a VMA,
whose VMA?

Please share your views here. Not a blocker for me to work on the
implementation, though. I'll use a private shmem file up until there
is a better option.

This ioctl API discussion is kind of meaningless for me ATM because it
does not have that much effect to the internals even if it wouldn't be
perfect in v19. Very trival to change.
