Dummy question that has been evading me for the last hours. Can you
help? Please bear with me here, I am a little lost in how to deal
with inodes and the cache.

....

Thus, what I need is a way that given the pair (inode,pgoff)
returns to me the 'struct page *' if the thing is cached in memory or
pulls it up from swap/file into memory and gets me a 'struct page *'.

Is there a way to do this?
find_get_page() might be the one you are looking for.
