sys_swapon: do not depend on "type" after allocation
Within sys_swapon, after the swap_info entry has been allocated, we always have type == p->type and swap_info[type] == p. Use this fact to reduce the dependency on the "type" local variable within the function, as a preparation to move the allocation of the swap_info entry to a separate function.
