Thanks, I've noticed some obsolete comments and code, currently
refactoring many parts so some of the functions would be just gone
someday.
But this surely cleans things up and is good to have, refactoring will
take much longer time to happen.

With the V2 update of "mm/swapfile.c: update the code comment above

BTW, I noticed most patches here are patching legacy code, and not
directly related to that series.
Just to clarify, so people won't need to worry about missing "Fixes:"
or things like that :)
