mm: vmscan: drop unnecessary div0 avoidance rounding in get_scan_count()

When we calculate the relative scan pressure between the anon and file LRU
lists, we have to assume that reclaim_stat can contain zeroes.  To avoid
div0 crashes, we add 1 to all denominators like so:

        anon_prio = swappiness;
        file_prio = 200 - anon_prio;

[...]

        /*
         * The amount of pressure on anon vs file pages is inversely
         * proportional to the fraction of recently scanned pages on
         * each list that were recently referenced and in active use.
         */
        ap = anon_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[0] + 1);
        ap /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[0] + 1;

        fp = file_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[1] + 1);
        fp /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[1] + 1;
        spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock);

        fraction[0] = ap;
        fraction[1] = fp;
        denominator = ap + fp + 1;

While reclaim_stat can contain 0, it's not actually possible for ap + fp
to be 0.  One of anon_prio or file_prio could be zero, but they must still
add up to 200.  And the reclaim_stat fraction, due to the +1 in there, is
always at least 1.  So if one of the two numerators is 0, the other one
can't be.  ap + fp is always at least 1.  Drop the + 1.
