The rmap doesn't currently support adding a PUD mapping of a
folio. This patch adds support for entire PUD mappings of folios,
primarily to allow for more standard refcounting of device DAX
folios. Currently DAX is the only user of this and it doesn't require
support for partially mapped PUD-sized folios so we don't support for
that for now.
