[PATCH 02/13] mm: extract ensure_on_mmlist() helper

[Usama Arif]

When a swap entry is installed in a page table, the mm must be added
to init_mm.mmlist so that swapoff can find and unuse its swap entries.
This double-checked locking pattern is currently open-coded in
try_to_unmap_one() and copy_nonpresent_pte().

Move it into ensure_on_mmlist() in mm/internal.h and convert both
callers so it can be reused by upcoming PMD-level swap entry code
paths that also need to register the mm with swapoff.

copy_nonpresent_pte() previously inserted into &src_mm->mmlist rather
than &init_mm.mmlist, but the insertion point is irrelevant, mmlist
is a circular list and swapoff walks it entirely from init_mm.mmlist,
so only membership matters, not position.
