mm: make mapping_evict_folio() the preferred way to evict clean folios

Patch series "Fix fault handler's handling of poisoned tail pages".

Since introducing the ability to have large folios in the page cache, it's
been possible to have a hwpoisoned tail page returned from the fault
handler.  We handle this situation poorly; failing to remove the affected
page from use.

This isn't a minimal patch to fix it, it's a full conversion of all the
code surrounding it.


This patch (of 6):

invalidate_inode_page() does very little beyond calling
mapping_evict_folio().  Move the check for mapping being NULL into
mapping_evict_folio() and make it available to the rest of the MM for use
in the next few patches.
