Subject: [PATCH v13 074/137] mm/writeback: Add folio_account_redirty()

Account the number of pages in the folio that we're redirtying.
Turn account_page_dirty() into a wrapper around it.  Also turn
the comment on folio_account_redirty() into kernel-doc and
edit it slightly so it makes sense to its potential callers.
