Now that buffer-heads has been converted over to support large folios
we can remove the built-in VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO() checks which prevents
their use.

<title>fs/mpage: use blocks_per_folio instead of blocks_per_page</title>

Convert mpage to folios and adjust accounting for the number of blocks
within a folio instead of a single page. This also adjusts the number
of pages we should process to be the size of the folio to ensure we
always read a full folio.

Note that the page cache code already ensures do_mpage_readpage() will
work with folios respecting the address space min order, this ensures
that so long as folio_size() is used for our requirements mpage will
also now be able to process block sizes larger than the page size.

For large blocksizes the number of block bits is larger than PAGE_SHIFT,
so calculate the sector number from the byte offset instead. This is
required to enable large folios with buffer-heads.

<title>fs/writeback: convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner to take a folio</title>

Most of the callers of wbc_account_cgroup_owner() are converting a folio
to page before calling the function. wbc_account_cgroup_owner() is
converting the page back to a folio to call mem_cgroup_css_from_folio().

Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio instead of a page,
and convert all callers to pass a folio directly except f2fs.

Convert the page to folio for all the callers from f2fs as they were the
only callers calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a page. As f2fs is
already in the process of converting to folios, these call sites might
also soon be calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a folio directly in
the future.

No functional changes. Only compile tested.

Restore support for passing data lifetime information from filesystems to
block drivers. This patch reverts commit b179c98f7697 ("block: Remove
request.write_hint") and commit c75e707fe1aa ("block: remove the
per-bio/request write hint").

This patch does not modify the size of struct bio because the new
bi_write_hint member fills a hole in struct bio. pahole reports the
following for struct bio on an x86_64 system with this patch applied:

        /* size: 112, cachelines: 2, members: 20 */
        /* sum members: 110, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 48 bytes */

Convert the function to be compatible with writepage_t so that it can be
passed to write_cache_pages() by blkdev.  This removes a call to
compound_head().  We can also remove the function export as both callers

Some architectures support a very large PAGE_SIZE, so instead of the 8
pointers we see with a 4kB PAGE_SIZE, we can see 128 pointers with 64kB or
so many on Hexagon that it trips compiler warnings about exceeding stack
frame size.

All we're doing with this array is checking for block contiguity, which we
can as well do by remembering the address of the first block in the page
and checking this block is at the appropriate offset from that address.
