Removed that from the patch and rebased. I think the best approach is to
remove the bit opportunistically when we're already dirtying the page
for something else.

However, right now, there is enough skepticism of the general approach
in this patch (and enough related proposals) that I'll leave this to be
resolved if and when there is more agreement that my approach is a good
one.

Also, it could use another round of performance testing before it's
actually commitable.
