From other posts I remember that mismatch count for swap > partitions is allowed to be nonzero. Yes, the 'swap' is nothing to worry about. As md does it's checks in units of around 128 sectors, the "md0: 128" probably just means a single sector is different between the two. I recommend echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action That will fix it. Probably just another 'fsck -f' after that just to be on the same side.
