Pull cachefiles and afs fixes from David Howells:
 "Fixes from Matthew Wilcox for page waiting-related issues in
  cachefiles and afs as extracted from his folio series[1]:

   - In cachefiles, remove the use of the wait_bit_key struct to access
     something that's actually in wait_page_key format. The proper
     struct is now available in the header, so that should be used
     instead.

   - Add a proper wait function for waiting killably on the page
     writeback flag. This includes a recent bugfix[2] that's not in the
     afs code.

   - In afs, use the function added in (2) rather than using
     wait_on_page_bit_killable() which doesn't provide the
     aforementioned bugfix"
