The confusion stems from `present` referring to the state of the hardware
PTE bits, instead of referring to the state of the entry.

But even if we're stuck with "non-present entry", it's still infinitely
more understandable (and teachable) than "non_swap_swap_entry".

So even if we never get to the point of replacing swp_entry_t, this is a
clear and obvious improvement.
