Yosry Ahmed b2d1f38b52 mm: swap: remove 'synchronous' argument to swap_read_folio() 
Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read
latency for block devices that can be polled.  However later commit [2]
removed polling support.  Commit [3] removed the remnants of polling
support from read_swap_cache_async() and __read_swap_cache_async(). 
However, it left behind some remnants in swap_read_folio(), the
'synchronous' argument.

swap_read_folio() reads the folio synchronously if synchronous=true or if
SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set in swap_info_struct.  The only caller that
passes synchronous=true is in do_swap_page() in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
case.

Hence, the argument is redundant, it is only set to true when the swap
read would have been synchronous anyway. Remove it.

[1] Commit 23955622ff ("swap: add block io poll in swapin path")
[2] Commit 9650b453a3 ("block: ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio")
[3] Commit b243dcbf2f ("swap: remove remnants of polling from read_swap_cache_async")

README 

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.
