mm: swap: allow cache reclaim to skip slot cache

Currently we free the reclaimed slots through slot cache even if the slot
is required to be empty immediately.  As a result the reclaim caller will
see the slot still occupied even after a successful reclaim, and need to
keep reclaiming until slot cache get flushed.  This caused ineffective or
over reclaim when SWAP is under stress.

So introduce a new flag allowing the slot to be emptied bypassing the slot
cache.
