Instead of removing the function "read_node_page" completely to avoid the redundant locking, we can simply remove the "unlock" part from the read_node_page and use the same code in ra_node_page, get_node_page, get_node_page_ra.. With this patch change, the same code is getting repeated at several places and IMHO It is not good for the puprose of the modularity. Please share your opinion.
