Subject: [PATCH 2/4] shmem: tag swap entries in radix tree

Shmem not uses any radix tree tags. Let's use one of them to mark
swap-entries stored in radix-tree as exceptional entries.
This allows to simplify and speedup truncate and swapoff operations.

Plus put tag manipulation, shmem_unuse(), shmem_unuse_inode() and
shmem_writepage() under CONFIG_SWAP. They are useless without swap.
