[PATCH] mm/vmscan: simplify the calculation of fractions for SCAN_FRACT

[Byungchul Park]

The current way to calculate fractions for SACN_FRACT is little readable
and more complicated than it should be.  It also performs unnecessary
division and adjustment to avoid zero operands.  Prune away by
multiplying the fractions by 'anon_cost * file_cost / (3 * total_cost)':

where:
   total_cost = sc->anon_cost + sc->file_cost
   anon_cost = total_cost + sc->anon_cost
   file_cost = total_cost + sc->file_cost

before:
   fraction[0] = swappiness * 3 * total_cost / anon_cost
   fraction[1] = (200 - swappiness) * 3 * total_cost / file_cost

after:
   fraction[0] = swappiness * file_cost
   fraction[1] = (200 - swappiness) * anon_cost

Worth noting that this patch doesn't change the formula.
