An address_space handler may attach extra information to a page,
typically using the 'private' field in the 'struct page'. If such
The read process essentially only requires 'readpage'. The write
process is more complicated and uses write_begin/write_end or
-set_page_dirty to write data into the address_space, and writepage,
-sync_page, and writepages to writeback data to storage.

Adding and removing pages to/from an address_space is protected by the
