Process kstack swapping was removed several years ago, so
"swapping out" a process just deactivates all of its pages.
In principle this could be safe to do with init, but it's probably
a bad idea, and perhaps could lead to deadlock in the
out-of-swap-space -> kill a process -> reparent the zombie to init
path. PS_INMEM will prevent init from being swapped out.
