[PATCH] swsusp: low level interface

Introduce the low level interface that can be used for handling the
snapshot of the system memory by the in-kernel swap-writing/reading code of
swsusp and the userland interface code (to be introduced shortly).

Also change the way in which swsusp records the allocated swap pages and,
consequently, simplifies the in-kernel swap-writing/reading code (this is
necessary for the userland interface too).  To this end, it introduces two
helper functions in mm/swapfile.c, so that the swsusp code does not refer
directly to the swap internals.
