Hm. I've expected to see bunch of pmd_none() to pmd_present() conversions.
That's seems a right way guard the code. Otherwise we wound need even more
checks once PMD-level swap is implemented.

I think we need to check for migration entires only if we have something
to do with migration. In all other cases pmd_present() should be enough to
bail out.
