[PATCH] fix missing unlock_page in mm/rmap.c

A required unlock_page will be missed in a very rare (but possible) race
condition. Acked by Hugh, who says:

	It'll be hard to hit because of the additional page_mapped test above,
	with truncate unmapping ptes from mms before it advances to removing
	pages from cache; but nothing to prevent it happening.
