Subject: [PATCH] mm, memcg: expose swapcache stat for memcg v1

Since commit b6038942480e ("mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2")
adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2, it seems there is no reason to
hide it in memcg v1. Conversely, with swapcached it is more accurate to
evaluate the available memory for memcg.
