Patch series "update mlock to use folios".

This series updates mlock to use folios, converting the internal interface
to using folios exclusively and exposing the folio interface externally.

As a product of this, move to using a folio batch rather than a pagevec
for mlock folios, which brings it in line with the core folio batches
contained in mm/swap.c.


This patch (of 4):

This performs the same task as pagevec_reinit(), only modifying a folio
batch rather than a pagevec.
