mm: swap: separate SSD allocation from scan_swap_map_slots()

Previously the SSD and HDD share the same swap_map scan loop in
scan_swap_map_slots().  This function is complex and hard to flow the
execution flow.

scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() can already do most of the heavy lifting
to locate the candidate swap range in the cluster.  However it needs to go
back to scan_swap_map_slots() to check conflict and then perform the
allocation.

When scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() failed, it still depended on the
scan_swap_map_slots() to do brute force scanning of the swap_map.  When
the swapfile is large and almost full, it will take some CPU time to go
through the swap_map array.

Get rid of the cluster allocation dependency on the swap_map scan loop in
scan_swap_map_slots().  Streamline the cluster allocation code path.  No
more conflict checks.

For order 0 swap entry, when run out of free and nonfull list.  It will
allocate from the higher order nonfull cluster list.

Users should see less CPU time spent on searching the free swap slot when
swapfile is almost full.
