I'm not sure. Adding the additional complication of the md layer to
the Linux swapper thread's management of alternate access between two swap
partitions with equal priority seemed really unwise and _likely_ to
(at least) complicate operation, so I avoided doing so on the general
sentiment of simplicity.

In any event, I gather that there are tradeoffs.
