[PATCH] unpaged: PG_reserved bad_page

It used to be the case that PG_reserved pages were silently never freed, but
in 2.6.15-rc1 they may be freed with a "Bad page state" message.  We should
work through such cases as they appear, fixing the code; but for now it's
safer to issue the message without freeing the page, leaving PG_reserved set.
