Nothing.
After searching the entry to be uncharged(find_next_to_unuse below),
I recheck under swap_lock whether the entry is charged to the group.
Even if the device is swapoff'ed, swap_off must have uncharged the entry,
so I don't think it's needed anyway.

Ah, I think it should be added !p->swap_map to check the device has not
been swapoff'ed.
