The problems with page->_refcount are hard to debug, because usually
when they are detected, the damage has occurred a long time ago. Yet,
the problems with invalid page refcount may be catastrophic and lead to
memory corruptions.
Reduce the scope of when the _refcount problems manifest themselves by
adding checks for underflows and overflows into functions that modify
_refcount.
Use atomic_fetch_* functions to get the old values of the _refcount,
and use it to check for overflow/underflow.
