[PATCH] put in-memory filesystem dirty pages on the correct list
Replaces SetPageDirty() with set_page_dirty() in several places related to in-memory filesystems. SetPageDirty() is basically always the wrong thing to do. Pages should be moved to the ->dirty_pages list when dirtied so that writeback can see them. Without this change, dirty pages against in-memory filesystems would churn around on the inactive list all the time, rather than getting pushed away onto the active list. A minor efficiency thing.
