Since we no longer attempt to write back filesystem folios in pageout(),
and only tmpfs/shmem folios and anonymous swapcache folios can be written
back, we can remove the redundant folio_test_private() related logic to
simplify the logic of pageout(), as tmpfs/shmem and swapcache folios do
not use the PG_private flag.
Changes from v1:
- Re-write the commit message for patch 1 after discussing with Hugh. Thanks.
- Add a warning to catch this unlikely case.
- Add acked tags. Thanks.
