mm: avoid unconditional one-tick sleep when swapcache_prepare fails
Commit
13ddaf26be32 ("mm/swap: fix race when skipping swapcache")
introduced an unconditional one-tick sleep when `swapcache_prepare()`
fails, which has led to reports of UI stuttering on latency-sensitive
Android devices. To address this, we can use a waitqueue to wake up tasks
that fail `swapcache_prepare()` sooner, instead of always sleeping for a
full tick. While tasks may occasionally be woken by an unrelated
`do_swap_page()`, this method is preferable to two scenarios: rapid
re-entry into page faults, which can cause livelocks, and multiple
millisecond sleeps, which visibly degrade user experience.
Oven's testing shows that a single waitqueue resolves the UI stuttering
issue. If a 'thundering herd' problem becomes apparent later, a waitqueue
hash similar to `folio_wait_table[PAGE_WAIT_TABLE_SIZE]` for page bit
locks can be introduced.
