[PATCH] frontswap: fix incorrect zeroing and allocation size for frontswap_map

[Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com>]

The bitmap accessed by bitops must have enough size to hold the required
numbers of bits rounded up to a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.  And the bitmap
must not be zeroed by memset() if the number of bits cleared is not
a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.

This fixes incorrect zeroing and allocation size for frontswap_map.
The incorrect zeroing part doesn't cause any problem because
frontswap_map is freed just after zeroing.  But the wrongly calculated
allocation size may cause the problem.

For 32bit systems, the allocation size of frontswap_map is about twice as
large as required size.  For 64bit systems, the allocation size is smaller
than requeired if the number of bits is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.
