Subject: afs: Fix waiting for writeback then skipping folio

From: Vishal Moola (Oracle) <vishal.moola@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 819da022dd007398d0c42ebcd8dbb1b681acea53 upstream.

Commit acc8d8588cb7 converted afs_writepages_region() to write back a
folio batch. The function waits for writeback to a folio, but then
proceeds to the rest of the batch without trying to write that folio
again. This patch fixes has it attempt to write the folio again.

[DH: Also remove an 'else' that adding a goto makes redundant]
