Before the mempool was added, the VM was getting many, many
0-order allocation failures due to the atomic ratnode
allocations inside swap_out.  That monster mempool is
doing its job - drove a 256meg machine a gigabyte into
swap with no ratnode allocation failures at all.

So we do need to trim that pool a bit, and also handle
the case where swap_out fails, and not just keep
pointlessly calling it.
