Subject: [RFC/PATCH 3/3] frontswap/swap: allow frontswap "unuse" and add metadata for tracking it

We wish for transcendent memory backends to be able to push
frontswap pages back into the swap cache and need to ensure
that such a page, once pushed back, doesn't get immediately
recaptured by frontswap.  We add frontswap_unuse to do the
pushing via the recently added read_frontswap_async.  We
also add metadata to track when a page has been pushed and
code to manage (and count with debugfs) this metadata.

The initialization/destruction code for the metadata (aka
frontswap_denial_map) is a bit clunky in swapfile.c but
cleanup can be addressed when all the unuse code is working.
