Enable multipage folio support for the afs filesystem.

Support has already been implemented in netfslib, fscache and cachefiles
and in most of afs, but I've waited for Matthew Wilcox's latest folio
changes.

Note that it does require a change to afs_write_begin() to return the
correct subpage.  This is a "temporary" change as we're working on
getting rid of the need for ->write_begin() and ->write_end()
completely, at least as far as network filesystems are concerned - but
it doesn't prevent afs from making use of the capability.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
