swap: fix swap behaviour with symlinks
Starting a swap unit pointing to (What) a symlink (e.g. /dev/mapper/swap
or /dev/disk/by-uuid/...) would have said unit marked active, following
the one using the "actual" device (/dev/{dm-1,sda3}), but that new unit
would be seen as inactive.
Since all requests to stop swap units would follow/redirect to it,
and it is seen inactive, nothing would be done (swapoff never called).
This is because this unit would be treated twice in
swap_process_new_swap, the second call to swap_add_one causing it to
eventually be marked inactive.
