We get a kernel crash on s390 in mprotect testcase from libhugetlbfs
testsuite, starting with next-20230120, bisected to this commit.

We get here with pagecache_folio == NULL, and crash in folio_get().
It doesn´t seem right to replace the get_page() with folio_get()
here, the matching put_page() at out_put_page: also wasn't changed
correspondingly. Also, pagecache_folio == NULL seems to be a valid
case here, on all architectures.

Reverting this folio_get() to get_page() fixes the crash. Not sure
though if I missed something. I think you only want to replace
pagecache_page with pagecache_folio, like in the rest of the commit,
and not page -> pagecache_folio for this get_page().
