This helper is the folio equivalent of check_and_migrate_movable_pages().
Therefore, all the rules that apply to check_and_migrate_movable_pages()
also apply to this one as well. Currently, this helper is only used by
memfd_pin_folios().

This patch also includes changes to rename and convert the internal
functions collect_longterm_unpinnable_pages() and
migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() to work on folios. As a result,
check_and_migrate_movable_pages() is now a wrapper around
check_and_migrate_movable_folios().

Likely we should just drop that comment and refer to check_and_migrate_movable_folios() instead. No need to duplicate all that.

I wonder if we have to handle pages[i] being NULL. Hopefully not :)

Looks straight forward now:
