    afs: convert afs_writepages_region() to use filemap_get_folios_tag()

The issue is that filemap_get_folios_tag() gets a batch of pages at a time,
and then afs_writepages_region() goes through them one at a time, extends
each into an operation with as many pages as will fit using the loop in
afs_extend_writeback() and submits it - but, in the common case, this means
that the other pages in the batch already got annexed and processed in
afs_extend_writeback() and we end up doing duplicate processing.

Switching to write_cache_pages() isn't an immediate substitute as that
doesn't take account of PG_fscache (and this bit is used in other ways by
other filesystems).

So go back to finding the next folio from the VM one at a time and then
extending the op onwards.
