Seems nice.

I don't think we need bother creating both linear_page_index() and
__linear_page_index().  Realistically, we won't be supporting
PAGE_SHIFT!=PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT.  And most (or all?) of the sites which
you changed should have been using PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT anyway!

erk, please don't do this - it makes kernel developers fall over in
shock.  Let's do

			__linear_page_index(vma, addr) == 0

(This won't compile if someone forgets a `=', so the usual reason for
the backward comparison isn't valid).
