Let me remove it. I took a stab at it some time ago, but didn't think
the small LOC save was worth it, but people will keep wondering why
it's there.
If we add additional backends, (like separate GPU swapout to a user-
provided fd) we can re-add it. Similarly for the direct-insert-to-swap-
cache backend I have if we find out we need it anyway.

It's a mapping from backup interface handles to shmem offsets. Needed
because interface handle == 0 means error (which is inherited from
swp_entry_t).
