mm: fix swapoff hang after page migration and fork
commit 2022b4d18a491a578218ce7a4eca8666db895a73 upstream. I've been seeing swapoff hangs in recent testing: it's cycling around trying unsuccessfully to find an mm for some remaining pages of swap. I have been exercising swap and page migration more heavily recently, and now notice a long-standing error in copy_one_pte(): it's trying to add dst_mm to swapoff's mmlist when it finds a swap entry, but is doing so even when it's a migration entry or an hwpoison entry. Which wouldn't matter much, except it adds dst_mm next to src_mm, assuming src_mm is already on the mmlist: which may not be so. Then if pages are later swapped out from dst_mm, swapoff won't be able to find where to replace them. There's already a !non_swap_entry() test for stats: move that up before the swap_duplicate() and the addition to mmlist.
