Move the hibernation check from scan_swap_map() into try_to_free_swap():
to catch not only the common case when hibernation's allocation itself
triggers swap reuse, but also the less likely case when concurrent page
reclaim (shrink_page_list) might happen to try_to_free_swap from a page.

Hibernation already clears __GFP_IO from the gfp_allowed_mask, to stop
reclaim from going to swap: check that to prevent swap reuse too.
