Subject: [PATCHv2 05/11] mm/truncate: Use folio_set_dropbehind() instead of deactivate_file_folio()

The recently introduced PG_dropbehind allows for freeing folios
immediately after writeback. Unlike PG_reclaim, it does not need vmscan
to be involved to get the folio freed.

The new flag allows to replace whole deactivate_file_folio() machinery
with simple folio_set_dropbehind().
