follow: no put_page() if FOLL_GET not specified. Seems that one of the side effects of the dirty pages patch in 2.6.17-rc4-mm3 is that follow_pages does a page_put if FOLL_GET is not set in the flags passed to it. This breaks sys_move_pages() page status determination. Only put_page if we did a get_page() before.
