mm, swap: use SWP_SOLIDSTATE to determine if swap is rotational

The current non rotational check is unreliable as the device's rotational
status can be changed by a user via sysfs.

Use the more reliable SWP_SOLIDSTATE flag which is set at swapon time, to
ensure the nr_rotate_swap count remains consistent.  Plus, it is easy to
read and simple.
