Yes, much better, thanks: you made and commented the __ change in the
previous patch, and now you just do the move.  I'd have probably moved
the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageLRU,) up to the top of page_add_new_anon_rmap(),
where we already document some expectations on entry (or else removed it
completely, given that lru_cache_add() does the same); but that's a nit,
no need to make further change now.
