It's simply doing what the code did before. I do agree the mapping check
is a bit odd at that point, but that's how
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() and folio_launder() was setup. We can
certainly clean that up after the merge of these helpers, but I didn't
want to introduce any potential changes with this merge.

-EBUSY was the return from a 0 return from those two helpers before.
