[RFC 3/6] Swapless V1: try_to_unmap() - Create migration entries

[Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>]

Modify try_to_unmap to produce swap migration entries

If we are trying to unmap an entry and do not have an associated
swapcache entry but are doing migration then create a special
swap pte of type SWP_TYPE_MIGRATION pointing to the pfn.
