Subject: swap: fix do_swap_page() race with swapoff

When I was investigating the swap code, I found the below possible race
window:

CPU 1                                   	CPU 2
-----                                   	-----
do_swap_page
  if (data_race(si->flags & SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO)
  swap_readpage
    if (data_race(sis->flags & SWP_FS_OPS)) {
                                        	swapoff
					  	  ..
					  	  p->swap_file = NULL;
					  	  ..
    struct file *swap_file = sis->swap_file;
    struct address_space *mapping = swap_file->f_mapping;[oops!]

Note that for the pages that are swapped in through swap cache, this isn't
an issue. Because the page is locked, and the swap entry will be marked
with SWAP_HAS_CACHE, so swapoff() can not proceed until the page has been
unlocked.

Fix this race by using get/put_swap_device() to guard against concurrent
swapoff.
