Subject: [patch 10/13] remove add_to_page_cache_unique()



A tasty patch from Hugh Dickens. radix_tree_insert() fails if something
was already present at the target index, so that error can be
propagated back through add_to_page_cache(). Hence
add_to_page_cache_unique() is obsolete.

Hugh's patch removes add_to_page_cache_unique() and cleans up a bunch of
stuff.

:-) A large bouquet to Hugh, and another to Momchil Velikov for recoring the
whole interface in the first place.
