[patch] mm: page lock use lock bitops

[Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>]

mm: use lock bitops for page lock

trylock_page, unlock_page open and close a critical section. Hence,
we can use the lock bitops to get the desired memory ordering.

Also, mark trylock as likely to succeed (and remove the annotation from
callers).
