Subject: mm: swap: move nr_swap_pages counter decrement from folio_alloc_swap() to swap_range_alloc()

Patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile".

Patch 0-3 are some random fixes.  Patch 4 is a cleanup.  More details can
be found in respective patches.


This patch (of 4):

When folio_alloc_swap() encounters a failure in either
mem_cgroup_try_charge_swap() or add_to_swap_cache(), nr_swap_pages counter
is not decremented for allocated entry.  However, the following
put_swap_folio() will increase nr_swap_pages counter unpairly and lead to
an imbalance.

Move nr_swap_pages decrement from folio_alloc_swap() to swap_range_alloc()
to pair the nr_swap_pages counting.
