SHM_UNLOCK: fix Unevictable pages stranded after swap

Browse Source 
Commit cc39c6a9bb ("mm: account skipped entries to avoid looping in
find_get_pages") correctly fixed an infinite loop; but left a problem
that find_get_pages() on shmem would return 0 (appearing to callers to
mean end of tree) when it meets a run of nr_pages swap entries.

The only uses of find_get_pages() on shmem are via pagevec_lookup(),
called from invalidate_mapping_pages(), and from shmctl SHM_UNLOCK's
scan_mapping_unevictable_pages().  The first is already commented, and
not worth worrying about; but the second can leave pages on the
Unevictable list after an unusual sequence of swapping and locking.

Fix that by using shmem_find_get_pages_and_swap() (then ignoring the
swap) instead of pagevec_lookup().

But I don't want to contaminate vmscan.c with shmem internals, nor
shmem.c with LRU locking.  So move scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() into
shmem.c, renaming it shmem_unlock_mapping(); and rename
check_move_unevictable_page() to check_move_unevictable_pages(), looping
down an array of pages, oftentimes under the same lock.

Leave out the "rotate unevictable list" block: that's a leftover from
when this was used for /proc/sys/vm/scan_unevictable_pages, whose flawed
handling involved looking at pages at tail of LRU.

Was there significance to the sequence first ClearPageUnevictable, then
test page_evictable, then SetPageUnevictable here? I think not, we're
under LRU lock, and have no barriers between those.
