Yeah, in the latest lockless pagecache patches Nick got rid of
PG_nonewrefs as suggested by Hugh, however -rt also has my concurrent
pagecache patches and those need PG_nonewrefs on their own, so I hadn't
bothered to update to Nick's latest.

Perhaps I ought to, as you point out, page_cache_get_speculative() is
cleaner in his latest.. /me puts it on his overlong TODO list.

Yes, it does look good. Doesn't remove_exclusice_swap_page() also nest
PG_nonewrefs inside of swap_lock?

Looks to me that also needs fixing..
