Allow filemap_get_folio() to wait for writeback to complete (if the filesystem wants that behaviour). This is the folio equivalent of grab_cache_page_write_begin(), which is moved into the folio-compat file as a reminder to migrate all the code using it. This paves the way for getting rid of AOP_FLAG_NOFS once grab_cache_page_write_begin() is removed. Kernel grows by 11 bytes. filemap_get_folio() grows by 33 bytes but grab_cache_page_write_begin() shrinks by 22 bytes to make up for it. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org>
