plz forget my comments on v1...But...

If swap-in makes a charge before css is deactivated, pre_destroy()->force_empty()
will cause infinite loop until it finds a newly charged page in LRU. I think
force_empty() will find it by lru_drain() and can make res_coutnter to be 0.

I think we need some test with swap-in handling..Anyway,
