I Confirm, patch 1/3 really fixes race between writepage and umount, as expected.

In patch 2/3: race-window between unlock_page and iput extremely small.
My test works fine in parallel with thirty random swapon-swapoff,
but it works without this patch too, thus I cannot catch this race.

I apply patch 3/3 too, but have not tested this case.
