Yes, but we can avoid to read the same page secondly, that's a serious waste, if we still
reread the page in get_current_sit_page(), all the improvement will disappear.

IMO, this is the right way.

Agree. It's the same as the way that I suggested previously, and it can make
the contiguous pages reading api more common.
