[PATCH 3/5] mm, swap: Avoid lock swap_avail_lock when held cluster lock

[Huang, Ying]

From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx>

Cluster lock is used to protect the swap_cluster_info and
corresponding elements in swap_info_struct->swap_map[].  But it is
found that now in scan_swap_map_slots(), swap_avail_lock may be
acquired when cluster lock is held.  This does no good except making
the locking more complex and improving the potential locking
contention, because the swap_info_struct->lock is used to protect the
data structure operated in the code already.  Fix this via moving the
corresponding operations in scan_swap_map_slots() out of cluster lock.
