[PATCH 02/19] buffer: allow a buffer_head to point at memory outside the page cache

jbd2 builds a temporary buffer_head to write out the frozen copy of a
metadata block, and that copy lives in slab memory.  Today jbd2 points the
temporary buffer at the slab folio backing it.  A slab folio's ->mapping is
not an address_space, so anything that follows bh->b_folio->mapping there
gets garbage rather than NULL; mark_buffer_write_io_error() does exactly
that, and we are about to start calling it on this buffer.

Rather than teach every such helper about slab folios, allow bh->b_folio to
be NULL and let b_data point straight at the memory.  Code that needs the
folio has to check.  There are two places in this file:

 - __bh_submit() adds the data by virtual address using
   bio_add_virt_nofail(), and skips the cgroup accounting: a buffer that is
   not in the page cache has no owning folio to attribute writeback to.

 - buffer_set_crypto_ctx() returns early.  fscrypt has no interest in a
   buffer that is not part of a file mapping, which is why it already
   returns when folio_mapping() comes back NULL.

Nothing sets b_folio to NULL yet, so this patch is a no-op on its own.

This is deliberately not a general capability.  Buffers over highmem have
no permanent kernel virtual address, which is why folio_set_bh() records a
folio and an offset instead of an address.  A folio-less buffer_head is
only valid over memory that is always mapped, and must not be passed to
bh_offset().
