Then, what the heck were you trying to print out with that
piece of code, and who further down the food chain uses
the page struct?

Some VM code later on uses the page struct to return the correct value
from vma_nopage.  This code supports userland mappings, not just kernel
mappings.  We could of course just use phys_to_page/virt_to_page in the
vma_nopage code, but struct page works just fine.
