page_mapping must avoid slub pages

Browse Source 
Nicolas Ferre reports oops from flush_dcache_page() on ARM when using
SLUB: which reuses page->mapping as page->slab.  The page_mapping()
function, used by ARM and PA-RISC flush_dcache_page() implementations,
must not confuse SLUB pages with those which have page->mapping set.
