Subject: [PATCH v5 08/15] linux/mm.h: move folio_next() to mm/folio_next.h

Prepare to reduce dependencies on linux/mm.h.

folio_next() is used by linux/bio.h.  Moving it to a separate lean
header will allow us to avoid the dependency on linux/mm.h.

Having a one-function header may seem excessive, but there is hardly
another way if we want to distangle linux/mm.h from linux/bio.h.  If
one day, say, folio_prev() gets added, we can still rename the header
to something like folio_iterator.h, but until that happens, this
folio_next.h header seems like the best trade-off to reduce
dependencies.
