Subject: afs: fix dangling folio ref counts in writeback
Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2023 13:41:19 -0700

Commit acc8d8588cb7 converted afs_writepages_region() to write back a
folio batch.  If writeback needs rescheduling, the function exits without
dropping the references to the folios in fbatch.  This patch fixes that.
