[RFC 2/3] mm: make optimistic check for swapin readahead

[Ebru Akagunduz]

This patch makes optimistic check for swapin readahead
to increase thp collapse rate. Before getting swapped
out pages to memory, checks them and allows up to a
certain number. It also prints out using tracepoints
amount of unmapped ptes.
