Perhaps the following would be better, just in case anyone sets
PAGE_AGE_DECL to something other than 1.

    static inline void age_page_down(struct page *page)
    {
        unsigned long age = page->age;
        if (age > PAGE_AGE_DECL)
                age -= PAGE_AGE_DECL;
        else
                age = 0;
        page->age = age;
    }
