Andrea Arcangeli ba6f0ff398 ksm: fix ksm swapin time optimization
The new anon-vma code, was suboptimal and it lead to erratic invocation of
ksm_does_need_to_copy.  That leads to host hangs or guest vnc lockup, or
weird behavior.  It's unclear why ksm_does_need_to_copy is unstable but
the point is that when KSM is not in use, ksm_does_need_to_copy must never
run or we bounce pages for no good reason.  I suspect the same hangs will
happen with KVM swaps.  But this at least fixes the regression in the
new-anon-vma code and it only let KSM bugs triggers when KSM is in use.

The code in do_swap_page likely doesn't cope well with a not-swapcache,
especially the memcg code.
