Subject: [PATCH 3/3] shmem: cleanup shmem_add_to_page_cache

shmem_add_to_page_cache() has three callsites, but only one of them
wants the radix_tree_preload() (an exceptional entry guarantees that
the radix tree node is present in the other cases), and only that site
can achieve mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() (PageSwapCache makes it a
no-op in the other cases).  We did it this way originally to reflect
add_to_page_cache_locked(); but it's confusing now, so move the
radix_tree preloading and mem_cgroup uncharging to that one caller.

This is just a cleanup: I'd prefer it to go in along with the fix 2/3,
but it can be delayed to v3.6 if you prefer.
