mm: add_to_swap_cache() does not return -EEXIST

After commit 355cfa73

 ("mm: modify swap_map and add SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag"),
only the context which have set SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag by swapcache_prepare()
or get_swap_page() would call add_to_swap_cache().  So add_to_swap_cache()
doesn't return -EEXIST any more.

Even though it doesn't return -EEXIST, it's not good behavior conceptually
to call swapcache_prepare() in the -EEXIST case, because it means clearing
SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag while the entry is on swap cache.

This patch removes redundant codes and comments from callers of it, and
adds VM_BUG_ON() in error path of add_to_swap_cache() and some comments.
