A couple of oddities were guarded by page_table_lock, no longer properly
guarded when that is split.

The mm_counters of file_rss and anon_rss: make those an atomic_t, or an
atomic64_t if the architecture supports it, in such a case.  Definitions by
courtesy of Christoph Lameter: who spent considerable effort on more scalable
ways of counting, but found insufficient benefit in practice.

And adding an mm with swap to the mmlist for swapoff: the list is well-
guarded by its own lock, but the list_empty check now has to be repeated
inside it.
