bug! The rhs will get truncated befire it gets assigned to
the lhs. Need to cast page->index to loff_t.

I'll fix this one up. Please review the other patches for this?


I decided to merge this ahead of that great pile of Nick's patches
(pagecache write deadlocks) and gto a number of easy-to-fix rejects as a
result. Hopefully it all landed OK.
