Ok, I figured it out myself. To make it work simply create a loop device:
losetup /dev/loop0 /mnt/partitions/ntfs0/swapfile
and then do:
swapon /dev/loop0
This should work fine.
The reason it doesn't work directly is that swap uses the antiquated and on
NTFS not supported bmap address space operation (via calling bmap()). Going
via the loop device makes it work.
Best regards,
Anton
