Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix unproperly folio_put by changing API in read_pages

According to the comments of readahead_page[3], the refcnt which
represents page cache dropped in [1] makes sense for two reasons, '1.
The folio is going to do IO and is locked until IO done;2. The refcnt
will be added back when found again from the page cache and then serve
for PTE or vfs' while it doesn't make sense in [2] as the refcnt of
page cache will be dropped in filemap_remove_folio.

  read_pages()
  {
    aops->readahead
    {
[1]
        folio = readahead_folio();
    }
..
[2]
    while (folio = readahead_folio())
        filemap_remove_folio(folio);
  }

[3]
 * Context: The page is locked and has an elevated refcount.  The caller
 * should decreases the refcount once the page has been submitted for I/O
 * and unlock the page once all I/O to that page has completed.
 * Return: A pointer to the next page, or %NULL if we are done.
