s390/pgtable: cleanup description of swp pte layout

Browse source 
Bit 52 and bit 55 don't have to be zero: they only trigger a
translation-specifiation exception if the PTE is marked as valid, which is
not the case for swap ptes.

Document which bits are used for what, and which ones are unused.

/*
* 64 bit swap entry format:
* A page-table entry has some bits we have to treat in a special way.
* Bits 52 and bit 55 have to be zero, otherwise a specification
* exception will occur instead of a page translation exception. The
* specification exception has the bad habit not to store necessary
* information in the lowcore.
* Bits 54 and 63 are used to indicate the page type.
* Bits 54 and 63 are used to indicate the page type. Bit 53 marks the pte
* as invalid.
* A swap pte is indicated by bit pattern (pte & 0x201) == 0x200
* This leaves the bits 0-51 and bits 56-62 to store type and offset.
* We use the 5 bits from 57-61 for the type and the 52 bits from 0-51
* for the offset.
* | offset |01100|type |00|
* | offset |X11XX|type |S0|
* |0000000000111111111122222222223333333333444444444455|55555|55566|66|

*
* Bits 0-51 store the offset.
* Bits 57-61 store the type.
* Bit 62 (S) is used for softdirty tracking.
* Bits 52, 55 and 56 (X) are unused.
