[PATCH] fix free swap cache latency
Lee Revell reported 28ms latency when process with lots of swapped memory exits. 2.6.15 introduced a latency regression when unmapping: in accounting the zap_work latency breaker, pte_none counted 1, pte_present PAGE_SIZE, but a swap entry counted nothing at all. We think of pages present as the slow case, but Lee's trace shows that free_swap_and_cache's radix tree lookup can make a lot of work - and we could have been doing it many thousands of times without a latency break. Move the zap_work update up to account swap entries like pages present. This does account non-linear pte_file entries, and unmap_mapping_range skipping over swap entries, by the same amount even though they're quick: but neither of those cases deserves complicating the code (and they're treated no worse than they were in 2.6.14).
