The swap_info_struct is only 76 or 104 bytes, but it does seem wrong
to reserve an array of about 30 of them in bss, when most people will
want only one. Change swap_info[] to an array of pointers.
That does need a "type" field in the structure: pack it as a char with
next type and short prio (aha, char is unsigned by default on PowerPC).
Use the (admittedly peculiar) name "type" throughout for this index.
/proc/swaps does not take swap_lock: I wouldn't want it to, but do take
care with barriers when adding a new item to the array (never removed).
