[RFC 03/11] mm: remove SWAP_DIRTY in ttu

[Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>]

If we found lazyfree page is dirty, ttuo can just SetPageSwapBakced
in there like PG_mlocked page and just return with SWAP_FAIL which
is very natural because the page is not swappable right now so that
vmscan can activate it. There is no point to introduce new return
value SWAP_DIRTY in ttu at the moment.
