mm: shmem: only remove inode from swaplist when it's swapped page count is 0

Even if we fail to allocate a swap entry, the inode might have previously
allocated entry and we might take inode containing swap entry off
swaplist.  As a result, try_to_unuse() may enter a potential dead loop to
repeatedly look for inode and clean it's swap entry.  Only take inode off
swaplist when it's swapped page count is 0 to fix the issue.
