Shutemov" We want page to be isolated from the rest of the system before splitting it. We rely on page count to be 2 for file pages to make sure nobody uses the page: one pin to caller, one to radix-tree. Filesystems with backing storage can have page count increased if it has buffers. Let's try to free them, before attempt split. And remove one guarding VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(). Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
