Kairui Song 4f79384a25 mm, swap_slots: remove slot cache for freeing path
The slot cache for freeing path is mostly for reducing the overhead of
si->lock.  As we have basically eliminated the si->lock usage for freeing
path, it can be removed.

This helps simplify the code, and avoids swap entries from being hold in
cache upon freeing.  The delayed freeing of entries have been causing
trouble for further optimizations for zswap [1] and in theory will also
cause more fragmentation, and extra overhead.

Test with build linux kernel showed both performance and fragmentation is
better without the cache:

tiem make -j96 / 768M memcg, 4K pages, 10G ZRAM, avg of 4 test run::
Before:
Sys time: 36047.78, Real time: 472.43
After: (-7.6% sys time, -7.3% real time)
Sys time: 33314.76, Real time: 437.67

time make -j96 / 1152M memcg, 64K mTHP, 10G ZRAM, avg of 4 test run:
Before:
Sys time: 46859.04, Real time: 562.63
hugepages-64kB/stats/swpout: 1783392
hugepages-64kB/stats/swpout_fallback: 240875
After: (-23.3% sys time, -21.3% real time)
Sys time: 35958.87, Real time: 442.69
hugepages-64kB/stats/swpout: 1866267
hugepages-64kB/stats/swpout_fallback: 158330

Sequential SWAP should be also slightly faster, tests didn't show a
measurable difference though, at least no regression:

Swapin 4G zero page on ZRAM (time in us):

1912391 1927023 1927957 1916527 1918263 1914284 1934753 1940813 1921791
After (avg. 1922290):
1919101 1925743 1916810 1917007 1923930 1935152 1917403 1923549 1921913
