Tim Chen 36005bae20 mm/swap: allocate swap slots in batches
Currently, the swap slots are allocated one page at a time, causing
contention to the swap_info lock protecting the swap partition on every
page being swapped.

This patch adds new functions get_swap_pages and scan_swap_map_slots to
request multiple swap slots at once.  This will reduces the lock
contention on the swap_info lock.  Also scan_swap_map_slots can operate
more efficiently as swap slots often occurs in clusters close to each
other on a swap device and it is quicker to allocate them together.
