Now that make_folio_secure() may only set PG_arch_1 for small folios,
let's convert relevant remaining UV code to only work on (small) folios
and simply reject large folios early. This way, we'll never end up
touching PG_arch_1 on tail pages of a large folio in UV code.

The folio_get()/folio_put() for functions that are documented to already
hold a folio reference look weird and it should probably be removed.
Similarly, uv_destroy_owned_page() and uv_convert_owned_from_secure()
should really consume a folio reference instead. But these are cleanups for
another day.

Yes, and we should convert arch_make_page_accessible() to
arch_make_folio_accessible() ... one of the two callers already has the
folio (and page-writeback already calls arch_make_folio_accessible()


Yes. We should then get rid of the arch_make_folio_accessible() loop over pages. Arch code can handle that, if required. Will include that in this series.
