swapfile: swapon needs larger size type
sys_swapon()'s swapfilesize (better renamed swapfilepages) is declared as
an int, but should be an unsigned long like the maxpages it's compared
against: on 64-bit (with 4kB pages) a swapfile of 2^44 bytes was rejected
with "Swap area shorter than signature indicates".
