By using a folio in scan_movable_pages() we convert the last user of the
page-based hugetlb information macro functions to the folio version.
After this conversion, we can safely remove the page-based definitions
from include/linux/hugetlb.h.

v1 -> v2:
simplify pfn skipping logic with pfn |= folio_nr_pages(folio) - 1

Likely not exactly what we want?

pfn |= folio_nr_pages(folio);

Would make sure that we are "one PFN before the start of the next folio". The pfn++ before the next loop iteration would move us to the next folio.

Or am I missing something?

It might be cleaner if we would handle the "pfn++;" on the "continue;" paths inmstead, and simply here do something like

pfn = ALIGN(pfn + 1, folio_nr_pages(folio));

instead.
