    CacheFiles: Permit the page lock state to be monitored
    
    Add a function to install a monitor on the page lock waitqueue for a particular
    page, thus allowing the page being unlocked to be detected.
    
    This is used by CacheFiles to detect read completion on a page in the backing
    filesystem so that it can then copy the data to the waiting netfs page.
