shmem: fix tmpfs reconfiguration (remount) when noswap is set
In systemd we're trying to switch the internal credentials setup logic
to new mount API [1], and I noticed fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE)
consistently fails on tmpfs with noswap option. This can be trivially
reproduced with the following:

```
int fs_fd = fsopen("tmpfs", 0);
fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FLAG, "noswap", NULL, 0);
fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
fsmount(fs_fd, 0, 0);
fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_CMD_RECONFIGURE, NULL, NULL, 0);  <------ EINVAL
```

After some digging the culprit is shmem_reconfigure() rejecting
!(ctx->seen & SHMEM_SEEN_NOSWAP) && sbinfo->noswap, which is bogus
as ctx->seen serves as a mask for whether certain options are touched
at all. On top of that, noswap option doesn't use fsparam_flag_no,
hence it's not really possible to "reenable" swap to begin with.
Drop the check and redundant SHMEM_SEEN_NOSWAP flag.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
