One thing to note here is that this fix won't be required if we get
the page-scan-mode patch [1] in this CF.  I think if we fix this with
the patch proposed by Ashutosh, then we anyway needs to again change
the related code (kind of revert the fix) after page-scan-mode patch.
Now, if you think we have negligible chance of getting that patch,
then it is good to proceed with this fix.
