I think it should be in the original position (inside the kswapd loop), I
think removing it was probably a mistake. I prefer Stephens test there
rather than in page_io (setting "wait" in page_io.c has more ramifications
than just getting the IO started, I'm not sure we really actually want to
wait on the page).
Hmm.. I could go either way on this. Arguments from all sides?
