mm: extract mm_prepare_for_swap_entries() helper
When a swap entry is installed in a page table, the mm must be added to
init_mm.mmlist so that swapoff can find and unuse its swap entries. This
double-checked locking pattern is currently open-coded in
try_to_unmap_one() and copy_nonpresent_pte().
Move it into mm_prepare_for_swap_entries() in mm/internal.h and convert
both callers so it can be reused by upcoming PMD-level swap entry code
paths that also need to register the mm with swapoff.
copy_nonpresent_pte() previously inserted into &src_mm->mmlist rather than
&init_mm.mmlist, but the insertion point is irrelevant, mmlist is a
circular list and swapoff walks it entirely from init_mm.mmlist, so only
membership matters, not position.
