This is the patch to start collide with David's.

David's patch has also unified both paths with ptep_get_and_clear(), but
this patch itself is also correct to me.

It'll probably just become no-diff after rebase, though.. I'm not sure how
the ordering would be at last, but anyway I think this patch stands as its
own too..

Thanks for tolerant with my nitpickings,
