The RECLAIM_SWAP flag in zone_reclaim_mode controls whether
zone_reclaim() is allowed to swap or not (obviously).
This is currently implemented by allowing or forbidding reclaim to
unmap pages, which also controls reclaim of shared pages and is thus
not appropriate.
We can do better by using the sc->may_swap parameter instead, which
controls whether the anon lists are scanned.
Unmapping of pages is then allowed per default from zone_reclaim().
