tmpfs: convert shmem_truncate_range to radix-swap
Disable the toy swapping implementation in shmem_writepage() - it's hard to support two schemes at once - and convert shmem_truncate_range() to a lockless gang lookup of swap entries along with pages, freeing both. Since the second loop tightens its noose until all entries of either kind have been squeezed out (and we shall make sure that there's not an instant when neither is visible), there is no longer a need for yet another pass below. shmem_radix_tree_replace() compensates for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place, under lock, before replacing it. Here it just deletes, but will be used in later patches to substitute swap entry for page or page for swap entry.
