When a memory corruption event triggers memory_failure, ext4 releases references to the affected dirty pages,
ensuring that no corrupted data is written to disk. However, ubifs currently lacks the error_remove_folio capability
and therefore cannot release references to faulty private memory. As a result, corrupted data may eventually be
written to flash storage.
Add generic_error_remove_folio support to ubifs, preventing corrupted memory data from being persisted to flash.

The 'error_remove_folio' was introduced in commit 257187362123f15d9d1("HWPOISON: Define a new error_remove_page address space op for async truncation") to distinguish the error handling behavior beteween metadata page and data page. Files' datapage will be truncated if memory error happens during page copy(eg. migration, mmap_cow). Then several filesystems(with '.migrate_page' implemtented) supportted it. So, I'm fine with this patch.
