From: Nick Piggin <[email protected]>
Combine page_cache_get_speculative with lockless radix tree lookups to
introduce lockless page cache lookups (ie. no mapping->tree_lock on
the read-side).
The only atomicity changes this introduces is that the gang pagecache
lookup functions now behave as if they are implemented with multiple
find_get_page calls, rather than operating on a snapshot of the pages.
In practice, this atomicity guarantee is not used anyway, and it is
difficult to see how it could be. Gang pagecache lookups are designed
to replace individual lookups, so these semantics are natural.
