First, thank you for your review!

If swapfiles is not mapped for some reason (can happen or "*swapfiles = 0" is
not run (that should not happen), then using *swapfiles leads to segfault.
*swapfiles is being used not only in SAFE_MUNMAP() here in cleanup(), but
also in clean_swap().
Also, this saves trying to deactivate swap files if they weren't activated.
And, unless "swapon03: Remove grep dependency" (the last commit) is accepted,
there is a corner case I found during debugging:
# ./swapon03 # quit early with ctrl+C => some swap partitions are left not being swapped off
...
Sending SIGKILL to test process...
tst_test.c:1909: TINFO: Killed the leftover descendant processes

Then following run tries to swapoff() partition left from previous run.
# ./swapon03
...
swapon03.c:80: TWARN: Failed to swapoff mntpoint/testswap
But the last commit fixes this problem.
Kind regards,
Petr
