We use folio_has_private() to decide whether call filemap_release_folio(),
which may call try_to_free_buffers() then. folio_has_private() return true
for both PG_private and PG_private_2. We should only call try_to_free_buffers()
for case PG_private. So we should recheck PG_private in try_to_free_buffers().
