Subject: [PATCH v1 05/10] mm: remove SWAP_MLOCK in ttu

ttu don't need to return SWAP_MLOCK. Instead, just return SWAP_FAIL
because it means the page is not-swappable so it should move to
another LRU list(active or unevictable). putback friends will
move it to right list depending on the page's LRU flag.
