folio_zero_tail() is a bit of an obscure function, so I'm not sure if
there will be additional callers. The parameters are described as:

 * @offset: The byte offset in the folio to start zeroing at.
 * @kaddr: The address the folio is currently mapped to.

What about changing the @kaddr description to 'the (mapped) address
within the folio to start zeroing at' or similar?
