Swap pud entries do not always return true for pud_huge() for all archs. 
x86 and sparc (so far) allow it, but all the rest do not accept a swap
entry to be reported as pud_huge().  So it's not safe to check swap
entries within pud_huge().  Check swap entries before pud_huge(), so it
should be always safe.

This is the only place in the kernel that (IMHO, wrongly) relies on
pud_huge() to return true on pud swap entries.  The plan is to cleanup
pXd_huge() to only report non-swap mappings for all archs.
