Actually, I've noticed that this is still slightly incorrect.

As Hugh pointed out, this works for the anon case, because
page_add_new_anon_rmap() sets page->mapping.

But for the page_in_cache case, it doesn't work: unlike its anon
counterpart, page_add_file_rmap() *does not* set page->mapping. So, I
think this line needs to become:

inc_mm_counter(dst_mm, page_in_cache ? mm_counter_file(page) :
mm_counter(page));

I'll include this fix in a v5 as well.
