invalidate_inode_page() can invalidate the pages in the swap cache because
the check of page->mapping != mapping is removed via Matthew's patch titled
"mm/truncate: Inline invalidate_complete_page() into its one caller". But
invalidate_inode_page() is not expected to deal with the pages in the swap
cache. Also non-lru movable page can reach here too. They're not page cache
pages. Skip these pages by checking PageSwapCache and PageLRU to fix this
unexpected issue.

I'm not familiar with this code to ack this, but it looks sane to me.
