Subject: [PATCH v2 12/12] mm: a few small updates for radix-swap

Remove PageSwapBacked (!page_is_file_cache) cases from
add_to_page_cache_locked() and add_to_page_cache_lru():
those pages now go through shmem_add_to_page_cache().

Remove a comment on maximum tmpfs size from fsstack_copy_inode_size(),
and add a comment on swap entries to invalidate_mapping_pages().

And mincore_page() uses find_get_page() on what might be shmem or a
tmpfs file: allow for a radix_tree_exceptional_entry(), and proceed to
find_get_page() on swapper_space if so (oh, swapper_space needs #ifdef).

v2: Fix NULL dereference I introduced in mincore_page().
