The swap devices are linked to per node priority lists, the swap device
closer to the node has higher priority on that node's priority list.
This is supposed to improve I/O latency, particularly for some fast
devices. But the current code gets nid by calling numa_node_id() which
actually returns the nid that the reclaimer is running on instead of the
nid that the page belongs to.
Pass the page's nid dow to get_swap_pages() in order to pick up the
right swap device. But it doesn't work for the swap slots cache which
is per cpu. We could skip swap slots cache if the current node is not
the page's node, but it may be overkilling. So keep using the current
node's swap slots cache. The issue was found by visual code inspection
so it is not sure how much improvement could be achieved due to lack of
suitable testing device. But anyway the current code does violate the
design.
