Subject: [PATCH] mm: vmscan: fix get_swappiness() return value type

Fix bool to int of the get_swappiness() return value type in
lruvec_is_sizable().

The get_swappiness() return value type is int, but the
get_swappiness() return value type is bool in lruvec_is_sizable().
So there is a possibility of value overflow.
