mm: account skipped entries to avoid looping in find_get_pages
The found entries by find_get_pages() could be all swap entries. In this case we skip the entries, but make sure the skipped entries are accounted, so we don't keep looping. Using nr_found > nr_skip to simplify code as suggested by Eric.
