[BUG]
When running generic/095, there is a high chance to crash with subpage
data RW support:

 assertion failed: PagePrivate(page) && page->private

[CAUSE]
Although prepare_pages() calls find_or_create_page(), which returns the
page locked, but in later prepare_uptodate_page() calls, we may call
btrfs_readpage() which will unlock the page before it returns.

This leaves a window where btrfs_releasepage() can sneak in and release
the page, clearing page->private and causing above ASSERT().

[FIX]
In prepare_uptodate_page(), we should not only check page->mapping, but
also PagePrivate() to ensure we are still holding the correct page which
has proper fs context setup.
