allow swappiness values greater than 100

Project Member Reported by semenzato@chromium.org, Jun 15 2017

Issue description

As Dmitry pointed out, the restriction that values of the kernel swappiness parameter be between 0 and 100 don't make much sense in the presence of zram, since swapping to zram can be a lot faster (30x on some systems) than paging from SSD.

We have experimented with increasing swappiness, but it did not produce any noticeable improvement.
