When the swap pager allocates space on disk, it requests contiguous
blocks in a single call to blist_alloc(). However, when it frees
that space, it previously called blist_free() on each block, one at a
time. With this change, the swap pager identifies ranges of
contiguous blocks to be freed, and calls blist_free() once per
range. In one extreme case, that is described in the review, the time
to perform an munmap(2) was reduced by 55%.
