If someone picks the gauntlet of refactoring the loop in mcopy_atomic()
we'd need a similar callback for uffd copy. And as I see it it would be
different enough to warrant emphasizing minor/continue in the name here.

I also think we can drop uffd_ prefix for the callback, as it's called as
uffd_ops->get_folio() or whatever it's be called.
