Subject: [RFC 1/4] fs: Allow fine-grained control of folio sizes

From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@...radead.org>

Some filesystems want to be able to limit the maximum size of folios,
and some want to be able to ensure that folios are at least a certain
size.  Add mapping_set_folio_orders() to allow this level of control
(although it is not yet honoured).

[Pankaj]: added mapping_min_folio_order()
