Subject: [PATCH v2 28/46] mm/writeback: Add filemap_dirty_folio()

Reimplement __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() as a wrapper around
filemap_dirty_folio().  This can use a cast to struct folio
because we know that the ->set_page_dirty address space op
is always called with a page pointer that happens to also be
a folio pointer.  Saves 7 bytes of kernel text.

- * dirtying, whereas __set_page_dirty_buffers() is a "top-down" dirtying.
- *
- * The caller must ensure this doesn't race with truncation.  Most will simply

+ * filemap_dirty_folio - Mark a folio dirty for filesystems which do not use buffer_heads.
+ * @mapping: Address space this folio belongs to.
+ * @folio: Folio to be marked as dirty.
+ *
+ * Filesystems which do not use buffer heads should call this function
+ * from their set_page_dirty address space operation.  It ignores the
+ * contents of folio_private(), so if the filesystem marks individual
+ * blocks as dirty, the filesystem should handle that itself.
