Random man page:  nswapdev(5) -- maximum number of devices that can be enabled for swap
Swap devices are managed in a table for easier indexing in the kernel. nswapdev sets the kernel variable responsible for the upper limit on this table, and thus the upper limit to devices which can be used for swap. Who is Expected to Change This Tunable? Anyone.
