fs: disallow all fallocate operation on active swapfile

Currently some file system have IS_SWAPFILE check in their fallocate
implementations and some do not. However we should really prevent any
fallocate operation on swapfile so move the check to vfs and remove the
redundant checks from the file systems fallocate implementations.
