swapfile: fix soft lockup in scan_swap_map_slots
A softlockup occurs in scan free swap slot under huge memory pressure. The test scenario is: 64 CPU cores, 64GB memory, and 28 zram devices, the disksize of each zram device is 50MB. LATENCY_LIMIT is used to prevent softlockups in scan_swap_map_slots(), but the real loop number would more than LATENCY_LIMIT because of "goto checks and goto scan" repeatly without decreasing latency limit. In order to fix it, decrease latency_ration in advance. There is also a suspicious place that will cause softlockups in get_swap_pages(). In this function, the "goto start_over" may result in continuous scanning of the swap partition. If there is no cond_sched in scan_swap_map_slots(), it would cause a softlockup (I am not sure about this). WARN: soft lockup - CPU#11 stuck for 11s!
