Pull netfx fixes from David Howells:
 "Two fixes, affecting the functions that iterates over the pagecache
  unmarking or unlocking pages after an op is complete:

   - xas_for_each() loops must call xas_retry() first thing and
     immediately do a "continue" in the case that the extracted value is
     a special value that indicates that the walk raced with a
     modification. Fix the unlock and unmark loops to do this.

   - The maths in the unlock loop is dodgy as it could, theoretically,
     at some point in the future end up with a starting file pointer
     that is in the middle of a folio. This will cause a subtraction to
     go negative - but the number is unsigned. Fix the maths to use
     absolute file positions instead of relative page indices"
