Can't we simple do like that if you want to make it simple and rely on someone who makes frontswap THP-aware later?

Wouldn't #ifdef CONFIG_THP_SWAP be better? frontswap_enabled() is 'false' on CONFIG_FRONTSWAP configs, should be compiled out anyway.
Agree.
/* Now, frontswap doesn't support THP page */
if (frontswap_enabled() && cluster)

Looks interesting. Technically, can be done earlier - in get_swap_page(), can't it? get_swap_page() has the PageTransHuge(page) && CONFIG_THP_SWAP condition checks. Can add frontswap dependency there. Something like
if (PageTransHuge(page)) { if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_THP_SWAP))
return entry; }if (!frontswap_enabled()) get_swap_pages(1, true, &entry);
Looks better but it introduces frontswap thing to swap_slots.c while all frontswap works in swapfile.c.
