Use memchr_inv() instead of the following.

You need to check for zeroes after the unmap below otherwise you may
lost data. So you need to do two rmap walks. Most probably the first one
would be the standard one (inserting swap entry in the ptes) but the
second one would be different where swap entries should be replaced by
the zeropage. Also at the end you need to make sure to release all the
swap resources associated with the given page/folio.
