mm/khugepaged: try to free transhuge swapcache when possible
Transhuge swapcaches won't be freed in __collapse_huge_page_copy(). It's because release_pte_page() is not called for these pages and thus free_page_and_swap_cache can't grab the page lock. These pages won't be freed from swap cache even if we are the only user until next time reclaim. It shouldn't hurt indeed, but we could try to free these pages to save more memory for system.
