[PATCH] mark-page-accessed in filemap.c not quite right

I just discovered there's a thinko in the mark-page-accessed change in
do_generic_mapping_read() in 2.6.11-rc1.  ra.prev_page is compared to index
to see if we read from this page before - except that prev_page is actually
set to the recent page or even a page in front of the current page.

So we should store ra.prev_page in a seperate variable at the start of
do_generic_mapping_read().
