[PATCH] mm: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in __swap_duplicate

[gaoxu <gaoxu2@honor.com>]

swp_swap_info() may return null; it is necessary to check the return value
to avoid NULL pointer dereference. The code for other calls to
swp_swap_info() includes checks, and __swap_duplicate() should also
include checks.

The reason why swp_swap_info() returns NULL is unclear; it may be due to
CPU cache issues or DDR bit flips. The probability of this issue is very
small, and the stack info we encountered is as follows：

Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops: Fatal exception
SMP: stopping secondary CPUs

The patch seems to only provide a workaround, but there are no more
effective software solutions to handle the bit flips problem. This path
will change the issue from a system crash to a process exception, thereby
reducing the impact on the entire machine.
