[PATCH] Direct Migration V9: remove_from_swap() to remove swap ptes
Add remove_from_swap
remove_from_swap() allows the restoration of the pte entries that existed
before page migration occurred for anonymous pages by walking the reverse
maps. This reduces swap use and establishes regular pte's without the need
for page faults.
