[RFC 06/11] mm: remove SWAP_MLOCK in ttu

[Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>]

ttu don't need to return SWAP_MLOCK. Instead, just return SWAP_FAIL
because it means the page is not-swappable so it should move to
another LRU list(active or unevictable). putback friends will
move it to right list depending on the page's LRU flag.

A side effect is shrink_page_list accounts unevictable list movement
by PGACTIVATE but I don't think it corrupts something severe.
