[RFC PATCH 09/11] mm/filemap: Convert mapping_get_entry and pagecache_get_page to folio

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Tue Dec 08 2020 - 15:23:53 EST


Convert mapping_get_entry() to return a folio and convert
pagecache_get_page() to use the folio where possible. The seemingly
dangerous cast of a page pointer to a folio pointer is safe because
__page_cache_alloc() allocates an order-0 page, which is a folio by
definition.
