Subject: [PATCH 10/11] Remove dependency on page->flag bits


The page clustering implementation uses page flags to track page usage.
In preparation for their replacement with corresponding pageblock flags
remove the page->flags manipulation.

After this patch, page clustering is broken until the next patch in the set
is applied.
