swap: revert special hibernation allocation
Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b1042ec150616c1963b5e5e919ffd0b0ebf
"hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation". It complicated matters by
adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any
way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after
fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as
swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of
the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as
clean then swapped back in. Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in
danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path.
I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation,
as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on
the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a
separate fix.
