Lorenzo Stoakes 6cdef2ddce fb_defio: do not use deprecated page->mapping, index fields ...

With the introduction of mapping_wrprotect_range() there is no need to use
folio_mkclean() in order to write-protect mappings of frame buffer pages,
and therefore no need to inappropriately set kernel-allocated page->index,
mapping fields to permit this operation.

Instead, store the pointer to the page cache object for the mapped driver
in the fb_deferred_io object, and use the already stored page offset from
the pageref object to look up mappings in order to write-protect them.

This is justified, as for the page objects to store a mapping pointer at
the point of assignment of pages, they must all reference the same
underlying address_space object.  Since the life time of the pagerefs is
also the lifetime of the fb_deferred_io object, storing the pointer here
makes sense.

This eliminates the need for all of the logic around setting and
maintaining page->index,mapping which we remove.

This eliminates the use of folio_mkclean() entirely but otherwise should
have no functional change.
