Replace int type with size_t type of the size argument
in the swap function, also affect all its dependencies.

This says _what_ the patch does, but it gives no clue as to _why_ you
are doing this.  Neither did your 0/5 patch :(

Why make this change?  Nothing afterward depends on it from what I can
tell, so why is it needed?

thanks,
