Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] mm/memory: Add vm_normal_folio()

Introduce a wrapper function called vm_normal_folio(). This function
calls vm_normal_page() and returns the folio of the page found, or null
if no page is found.

This function allows callers to get a folio from a pte, which will
eventually allow them to completely replace their struct page variables
with struct folio instead.
