With fast swap storage, platform want to use swap more aggressively
and swap-in is crucial to application latency.
The rw_page based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage. When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4 decompress
test, S/W overhead is more than 70%. Maybe, it would be bigger in nvdimm.
This patch aims for reducing swap-in latency via skipping swapcache
if swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device.
It enhances 45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead,
from 2.41sec to 1.64sec).
