It's been around since MVS/XA 2.2 at least.  I started setting it in MVS/ESA V3,
which is still a very very long time ago.  Since then we've had a couple of
MVS/ESA V4 and MVS/ESA V5 versions, 10 OS/390 releases and 11 (now
12) z/OS releases. 

So I hope there isn't any ISV software around that depends on SWA=BELOW.

When I made the "big leap" sometime during MVS/ESA, I left one JOBCLASS with
SWA=BELOW for anything that may have required it (now JOBCLASS can be
changed on the fly anyway).

There could be some home grown program that has a problem, but after
you make the change, it is easy enough to backout via operator command
if you run into a problem.  If it is something you can't fix or don't want to,
then leave 1 jobclass with SWA=BELOW.
