[PATCH] invalidate: remove_mapping() fix
If remove_mapping() failed to remove the page from its mapping, don't go and
mark it not uptodate! Makes kernel go dead.
(Actually, I don't think the ClearPageUptodate is needed there at all).
Says Nick Piggin:
"Right, it isn't needed because at this point the page is guaranteed
by remove_mapping to have no references (except us) and cannot pick
up any new ones because it is removed from pagecache.
We can delete it."
