This series cleans up a swap cache helper only used by mincore, move it
back into mincore code. Also separate the swap cache related logics out
of shmem / page cache logics in mincore.
With this series we have less lines of code and better performance.
Before this series:
mincore on a swaped out 16G anon mmap range:
Took 488220 us
mincore on 16G shmem mmap range:
Took 530272 us.
After this series:
mincore on a swaped out 16G anon mmap range:
Took 446763 us
mincore on 16G shmem mmap range:
Took 460496 us.
About ~10% faster.
