[PATCH] page_mkwrite caller race fix
After do_wp_page has tested page_mkwrite, it must release old_page after
acquiring page table lock, not before: at some stage that ordering got
reversed, leaving a (very unlikely) window in which old_page might be
truncated, freed, and reused in the same position.
