Subject: [PATCH v2] z3fold: fix the potential encode bug in encod_handle

From: zhong jiang <zhongjiang@...wei.com>

At present, zhdr->first_num plus bud can exceed the BUDDY_MASK
in encode_handle, it will lead to the the caller handle_to_buddy
return the error value.

The patch fix the issue by changing the BUDDY_MASK to PAGE_MASK,
it will be consistent with handle_to_z3fold_header. At the same time,
change the BUDDY_MASK to PAGE_MASK in handle_to_buddy is better.
