I see two distinct things happening in this patch, and I think they want to each be
in their own patch:
1) A significant refactoring of the page loop, and
2) Changing the place where the page is added to the page cache. (Only this one is
mentioned in the commit description.)
We'll be more likely to spot any errors if these are teased apart.
