mm: fix filemap_get_folios_contig returning batches of identical folios
commit 8ab1b16 upstream. filemap_get_folios_contig() is supposed to return distinct folios found within [start, end]. Large folios in the Xarray become multi-index entries. xas_next() can iterate through the sub-indexes before finding a sibling entry and breaking out of the loop. This can result in a returned folio_batch containing an indeterminate number of duplicate folios, which forces the callers to skeptically handle the returned batch. This is inefficient and incurs a large maintenance overhead. We can fix this by calling xas_advance() after we have successfully adding a folio to the batch to ensure our Xarray is positioned such that it will correctly find the next folio - similar to filemap_get_read_batch().
