zswap: do not map same object twice

zswap_writeback_entry() maps a handle to read swpentry first, and then in the most common case it would map the same handle again. This is ok when zbud is the backend since its mapping callback is plain and simple, but it slows things down for z3fold.

Since there's hardly a point in unmapping a handle _that_ fast as zswap_writeback_entry() does when it reads swpentry, the suggestion is to keep the handle mapped till the end.
