James reported a bug in swap paging-in from his testing. It is that
do_swap_page doesn't release locked page so system hang-up happens due
to a deadlock on PG_locked.
It was introduced by
0bcac06f27d7 ("mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin
of synchronous device") because I missed swap cache hit places to update
swapcache variable to work well with other logics against swapcache in
do_swap_page.
This patch fixes it.
