I think you also need something like workingset_node_shadows_dec(node)
here. It would be even better if you used something like
clear_exceptional_entry() to have the logic in one place (you obviously
need to factor out only part of clear_exceptional_entry() first).

And I'd prefer to have this logic moved to page_cache_tree_insert() because
logically it IMHO belongs there - it is a simply another case of handling
of radix tree used for page cache.
