btrfs: allow swap activation to be interruptible
During swap activation we iterate over the extents of a file, then do several checks for each extent, some of which may take some significant time such as checking if an extent is shared. Since a file can have many thousands of extents, this can be a very slow operation and it's currently not interruptible. I had a bug during development of a previous patch that resulted in an infinite loop when iterating the extents, so a core was busy looping and I couldn't cancel the operation, which is very annoying and requires a reboot. So make the loop interruptible by checking for fatal signals at the end of each iteration and stopping immediately if there is one.
