The prototype of the new swapoff (without the quadratic complexity)

has been swapped back in.

Does this fix the "TODO" in [1/2]?

Do you think this patchset is ready for testing (while Hugh reviews it
:)), or is there some deeper reason behind the "RFC"?

The patches look good to me, and this seems to
address the TODO from patch 1/2.

Kelley put in a heroic amount of effort tracking down
and fixing the corner cases I failed to anticipate
before putting this up as an OPW internship project.
