tmpfs: fix spurious ENOSPC when racing with unswap

Testing the shmem_swaplist replacements for igrab() revealed another bug:
writes to /dev/loop0 on a tmpfs file which fills its filesystem were
sometimes failing with "Buffer I/O error"s.

These came from ENOSPC failures of shmem_getpage(), when racing with
swapoff: the same could happen when racing with another shmem_getpage(),
pulling the page in from swap in between our find_lock_page() and our
taking the info->lock (though not in the single-threaded loop case).

This is unacceptable, and surprising that I've not noticed it before:
it dates back many years, but (presumably) was made a lot easier to
reproduce in 2.6.36, which sited a page preallocation in the race window.

Fix it by rechecking the page cache before settling on an ENOSPC error.
