mm: make swapoff more robust against soft dirty

Browse Source 
Both s390 and powerpc have hit the issue of swapoff hanging, when
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY and CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY ifdefs were not
quite as x86_64 had them.  I think it would be much clearer if
HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY was just a Kconfig option set by architectures to
determine whether the MEM_SOFT_DIRTY option should be offered, and the
actual code depend upon CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY alone.

But won't embark on that change myself: instead make swapoff more
robust, by using pte_swp_clear_soft_dirty() on each pte it encounters,
without an explicit #ifdef CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY.  That being a no-op,
whether the bit in question is defined as 0 or the asm-generic fallback
is used, unless soft dirty is fully turned on.

Why "maybe" in maybe_same_pte()? Rename it pte_same_as_swp().
