Took me quite some time to get my head around whether this was
correct or not.
I'm still not certain in the cases where block size != page size and
we've got an extent boundary in the middle of the page and had a
read error on the second extent in the page. In this case,
ctx.cur_page_in_bio is true so we drop the readahead reference to
the page. Also, length is not a multiple of page size, and so the
nr_pages value returned includes the partial page that we have IO
underway on.
That, I think, leads to both a double unlock and a double put_page()
of the partial page in question.
Cheers,
Dave.
