Subject: [PATCH] Rename RECLAIM_SWAP to RECLAIM_UNMAP.

the name SWAP implies that we are dealing with anonymous pages only.
In fact, the original patch that introduced the min_unmapped_ratio
logic was to fix an issue related to file pages. Rename it to
RECLAIM_UNMAP to match what does.

Historically, commit <a6dc60f8975a> renamed .may_swap to .may_unmap,
leaving RECLAIM_SWAP behind.  commit <2e2e42598908> reintroduced .may_swap
for memory controller.
