Subject: [PATCH 2.6.18-rc6-mm2] fix migrate_page_move_mapping for radix
	tree cleanup

Alternative to my "revert migrate_move_mapping ..." patch:


Change to radix_tree_{deref|replace}_slot() API requires
change to migrate_page_move_mapping() [only user of those
APIs, so far] to eliminate compiler warnings.

Apply only after backing out the patch:

page-migration-replace-radix_tree_lookup_slot-with-radix_tree_lockup.patch
