mm/memory.c: release locked page in do_swap_page()
James reported a bug in swap paging-in from his testing. It is that do_swap_page doesn't release locked page so system hang-up happens due to a deadlock on PG_locked. It was introduced by 0bcac06f27d7 ("mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device") because I missed swap cache hit places to update swapcache variable to work well with other logics against swapcache in do_swap_page. This patch fixes it. Debugged by James Bottomley.
