Most commits are looking great, but this one is a bit questionable. cluster_scan_range is only called by alloc_swap_scan_cluster, and it already checks if the cluster has enough empty slots to use, so this might be redundant. It is possible that cluster_scan_range sees an empty cluster if the cluster lock was dropped for reclaiming HAS_CACHE, but the chance should be extremely low, that this might be a negative optimization.
