sys_swapon: separate final enabling of the swapfile

The block in sys_swapon which does the final adjustments to the
swap_info_struct and to swap_list is the same as the block which
re-inserts it again at sys_swapoff on failure of try_to_unuse(). Move
this code to a separate function, and use it both in sys_swapon and
sys_swapoff.
