Commit 6fe6900e1e5b6fa9e5c59aa5061f244fe3f467e2 introduced a nasty bug
in read_cache_page_async().

It added a "mark_page_accessed(page)" at the final return path in
read_cache_page_async().  But in error cases, 'page' holds the error
code, and you can't mark it accessed.

[ and Glauber de Oliveira Costa points out that we can use a return
  instead of adding more goto's ]
