[PATCH] mm: swap write failure fixup

Browse Source 
Currently we can silently drop data if the write to swap failed.  It
usually doesn't result in data-corruption because on page-in the process
will receive SIGBUS (assuming write-failure implies read-failure).

This assumption might or might not be valid.

This patch will avoid the page being discarded after a failed write.  But
will print a warning the sysadmin _should_ take to heart, if a lot of swap
space becomes un-writeable, OOM is not far off.

Tested by making the write fail 'randomly' once every 50 writes or so.
