wait_on_page_bit and interactive apps

Inside the function wait_on_page_bit there is this code:

        ...
if (test_bit(bit_nr, &page->flags)) {
        sync_page(page);
        io_schedule();
}
        ...

If I move the io_schedule() before sync_page(page), this will improve the
response time of interactive applications?
