mm, swap: fix false error message in __swp_swapcount()

Browse Source 
When a page fault occurs for a swap entry, the physical swap readahead
(not the VMA base swap readahead) may readahead several swap entries
after the fault swap entry.  The readahead algorithm calculates some of
the swap entries to readahead via increasing the offset of the fault
swap entry without checking whether they are beyond the end of the swap
device and it relys on the __swp_swapcount() and swapcache_prepare() to
check it.  Although __swp_swapcount() checks for the swap entry passed
in, it will complain with the error message as follow for the expected
invalid swap entry.  This may make the end users confused.

  swap_info_get: Bad swap offset entry 0200f8a7

To fix the false error message, the swap entry checking is added in
swapin_readahead() to avoid to pass the out-of-bound swap entries and
the swap entry reserved for the swap header to __swp_swapcount() and
swapcache_prepare().
