mm: fix potential data race in SyS_swapon

While running KernelThreadSanitizer (ktsan) on upstream kernel with
trinity, we got a few reports from SyS_swapon, here is one of them:

Read of size 8 by thread T307 (K7621):
 [<     inlined    >] SyS_swapon+0x3c0/0x1850 SYSC_swapon mm/swapfile.c:2395
 [<ffffffff812242c0>] SyS_swapon+0x3c0/0x1850 mm/swapfile.c:2345
 [<ffffffff81e97c8a>] ia32_do_call+0x1b/0x25

Looks like the swap_lock should be taken when iterating through the
swap_info array on lines 2392 - 2401: q->swap_file may be reset to
NULL by another thread before it is dereferenced for f_mapping.

But why is that iteration needed at all?  Doesn't the claim_swapfile()
which follows do all that is needed to check for a duplicate entry -
FMODE_EXCL on a bdev, testing IS_SWAPFILE under i_mutex on a regfile?

Well, not quite: bd_may_claim() allows the same "holder" to claim the
bdev again, so we do need to use a different holder than "sys_swapon";
and we should not replace appropriate -EBUSY by inappropriate -EINVAL.

Index i was reused in a cpu loop further down: renamed cpu there.
