Subject: sys_swapon: do only cleanup in the cleanup blocks
From: Cesar Eduardo Barros <cesarb@cesarb.net>

The only way error is 0 in the cleanup blocks is when the function is
returning successfully. In this case, the cleanup blocks were setting
S_SWAPFILE in the S_ISREG case. But this is not a cleanup.

Move the setting of S_SWAPFILE to just before the "goto out;" to make
this more clear. At this point, we do not need to test for inode because
it will never be NULL.
