The tmpfs could support large folio, but there is some configurable
options(mount options and runtime deny/force) to enable/disable large
folio allocation, so there is a performance issue when perform write
without large folio, the issue is similar to commit 4e527d5841e2
("iomap: fault in smaller chunks for non-large folio mappings").
Don't call mapping_set_large_folios() in __shmem_get_inode() when
large folio is disabled to fix it.
