swapfile: swap allocation use discard
When scan_swap_map() finds a free cluster of swap pages to allocate,
discard the old contents of the cluster if the device supports discard.
But don't bother when swap is so fragmented that we allocate single pages.
Be careful about racing allocations made while we're scanning for a
cluster; and hold up allocations made while we're discarding.
