Without swap, anonymous pages are not scanned.  As such, they should
not count when considering force-scanning a small target if there is
no swap.

Otherwise, targets are not force-scanned even when their effective
scan number is zero and the other conditions--kswapd/memcg--apply.

We are calculating nr_force_scan even if it is not needed but this
shouldn't hurt.
Ahh and the second patch removes that calculation. Sorry for noise.
