Permit direct swapping to NFS regular files using swapon(2). We
already allow this for NFS swap configured via BOOTP, so it is
known to work fine.
For many diskless configurations is is more flexible to have the
client set up swapping itself; it can recreate a sparse swap file
to save on server space for example, and it works with a non-NFS
root filesystem such as an in-kernel filesystem image.
