As Kirill pointed out, mapping can be removed under us due to
truncation. Test it under folio lock as already done for the async
compaction / dirty folio case. To prevent locking every folio with
mapping to do the test, do it only for unevictable folios, as we can
expect the unmovable mapping folios are also unevictable - it is the
case for guest memfd folios.

Also incorporate comment update suggested by Matthew.
