Dan Streetman d1dc6f1bcf frontswap: allow multiple backends
Change frontswap single pointer to a singly linked list of frontswap
implementations.  Update Xen tmem implementation as register no longer
returns anything.

Frontswap only keeps track of a single implementation; any
implementation that registers second (or later) will replace the
previously registered implementation, and gets a pointer to the previous
implementation that the new implementation is expected to pass all
frontswap functions to if it can't handle the function itself.  However
that method doesn't really make much sense, as passing that work on to
every implementation adds unnecessary work to implementations; instead,
frontswap should simply keep a list of all registered implementations
and try each implementation for any function.  Most importantly, neither
of the two currently existing frontswap implementations in the kernel
actually do anything with any previous frontswap implementation that
they replace when registering.

This allows frontswap to successfully manage multiple implementations by
keeping a list of them all.

* has registered.
*
* This would not guards us against the user deciding to call swapoff right as
* we are calling the backend to initialize (so swapon is in action).
* Fortunatly for us, the swapon_mutex has been taked by the callee so we are
* OK. The other scenario where calls to frontswap_store (called via
* swap_writepage) is racing with frontswap_invalidate_area (called via
* swapoff) is again guarded by the swap subsystem.
*
* While no backend is registered all calls to frontswap_[store|load|
* invalidate_area|invalidate_page] are ignored or fail.
*
* The time between the backend being registered and the swap file system
* calling the backend (via the frontswap_* functions) is indeterminate as
* frontswap_ops is not atomic_t (or a value guarded by a spinlock).
* That is OK as we are comfortable missing some of these calls to the newly
* registered backend.
*
* Obviously the opposite (unloading the backend) must be done after all
* the frontswap_[store|load|invalidate_area|invalidate_page] start
* ignoring or failing the requests. However, there is currently no way
* to unload a backend once it is registered.
