This adds a return check after the call to the function rmap_walk in the function page_referenced as this function call can fail and thus should signal callers of page_referenced if this happens by returning the SWAP macro return value as returned by rmap_walk here. In addition also check if have locked the page pointer as passed to this particular and unlock it with unlock_page if this page is locked before returning our SWAP marco return code from rmap_walk.
