You don't need this pair of lines (unless I'm missing something).
read_pages() in mm/readahead.c puts the reference and unlocks any
pages which are not read by the readahead op.  Indeed, I think doing
this is buggy because you don't unlock the page.

FYI, this isn't going to work with swap-over-NFS.  You have to use
page_file_mapping().

and page_index() here.

I rather dislike it that swap-over-NFS uses readpage which makes this
need to exist.  If somebody were to switch SWP_FS_OPS to using kiocbs,
some of this pain could go away.
