Kairui Song 913fff3145 mm, swap: remove fragment clusters counter
It was used for calculating the iteration number when the swap allocator
wants to scan the whole fragment list.  Now the allocator only scans one
fragment cluster at a time, so no one uses this counter anymore.

Remove it as a cleanup; the performance change is marginal:

Build linux kernel using 10G ZRAM, make -j96, defconfig with 2G cgroup
memory limit, on top of tmpfs, 64kB mTHP enabled:

Before:  sys time: 6278.45s
After:   sys time: 6176.34s

Change to 8G ZRAM:

Before:  sys time: 5572.85s
After:   sys time: 5531.49s

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
