[RFC 01/23] fs: Allow fine-grained control of folio sizes

[Pankaj Raghav <kernel@pankajraghav.com>]

From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>

Some filesystems want to be able to limit the maximum size of folios,
and some want to be able to ensure that folios are at least a certain
size.  Add mapping_set_folio_orders() to allow this level of control.
The max folio order parameter is ignored and it is always set to
MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER.

[Pankaj]: added mapping_min_folio_order(), changed MAX_MASK to 0x0003e000

[mcgrof: rebase in light of "mm, netfs, fscache: stop read optimisation
when folio removed from pagecache" which adds AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS]
