mm: shmem: avoid atomic operation during shmem_getpage_gfp
commit 07a427884348d38a6fd56fa4d78249c407196650 upstream.
shmem_getpage_gfp uses an atomic operation to set the SwapBacked field
before it's even added to the LRU or visible. This is unnecessary as what
could it possible race against? Use an unlocked variant.
