KOSAKI Motohiro d7911ef30c vmscan: implement swap token priority aging
While testing for memcg aware swap token, I observed a swap token was
often grabbed an intermittent running process (eg init, auditd) and they
never release a token.

Why?

Some processes (eg init, auditd, audispd) wake up when a process exiting.
And swap token can be get first page-in process when a process exiting
makes no swap token owner.  Thus such above intermittent running process
often get a token.

And currently, swap token priority is only decreased at page fault path.
Then, if the process sleep immediately after to grab swap token, the swap
token priority never be decreased.  That's obviously undesirable.

This patch implement very poor (and lightweight) priority aging.  It only
be affect to the above corner case and doesn't change swap tendency
workload performance (eg multi process qsbench load)

* Improved algorithm to pass token:
* Each task has a priority which is incremented if it contended
* for the token in an interval less than its previous attempt.
* If the token is acquired, that task's priority is boosted to prevent
* the token from bouncing around too often and to let the task make
* some progress in its execution.
