The folio is known to belong to this mapping and can't be truncated
while under writeback.  So it's safe to do:

			folio_set_error(folio);
			mapping_set_error(folio->mapping, err);

I'm not even sure I'd bother to pull folio out of the fi.

	bio_for_each_folio_all(fi, bio) {
		if (err) {
			folio_set_error(fi.folio);
			mapping_set_error(fi.folio->mapping, err);
		}
		folio_end_writeback(fi.folio);
	}
