xenpaging:add a new array to speed up page-in in xenpaging

This patch adds a new array named page_out_index to reserve the victim's index.
When page in a page,it has to go through a for loop from 0 to num_pages to find
the right page to read,and it costs much time in this loop.After adding the
page_out_index array,it just reads the arrry to get the right page,and saves 
much time.

The following is a xenpaging test on suse11-64 with 4G memories.

Nums of page_out pages  Page out time   Page in time(in unstable code) Page in
