For what?  The three lines of comment in page-flags.h?   ack :)

Manipulating page->_count directly is considered poor form.  Don't
blame us if we break your code ;)

Actually, the manipulation in realmode_get_page() duplicates the
existing get_page_unless_zero() and the one in realmode_put_page()
could perhaps be placed in mm.h with a suitable name and some
documentation.  That would improve your form and might protect the code
from getting broken later on.
