mm/huge_memory: move unrelated code out of __split_unmapped_folio()

Patch series "__folio_split() clean up", v5.

This patchset refactors __folio_split() and __split_unmapped_folio() to:
1. make __split_unmapped_folio() reusable for splitting unmapped
   folios.  It avoids the need for a new boolean unmapped parameter to
   guard mapping-related code when __split_unmapped_folio() is reused to
   split unmapped folios.
2. improve code readability and prevent smatch/coverity checkers from
   complaining about NULL mapping referencing.

An additional benefit for __split_unmapped_folio() refactoring is that
__split_unmapped_folio() could be called on after-split folios by
__folio_split().  It can enable new split methods.  For example, at
deferred split time, unmapped subpages can scatter arbitrarily within a
large folio, neither uniform nor non-uniform split can maximize
after-split folio orders for mapped subpages.  The hope is that by calling
__split_unmapped_folio() multiple times, a better split result can be
achieved.


This patch (of 6):

remap(), folio_ref_unfreeze(), lru_add_split_folio() are not relevant to
splitting unmapped folio operations.  Move them out to __folio_split() so
that __split_unmapped_folio() only handles unmapped folio splits.  This
makes __split_unmapped_folio() reusable.

Remove the swapcache folio split check code before
__split_unmapped_folio() call, since it is already checked at the
beginning of __folio_split() in uniform_split_supported() and
non_uniform_split_supported().

Along with the code move, there are some variable renames:

1. release is renamed to new_folio,
2. origin_folio is now folio, since __folio_split() has folio pointing to
   the original folio already.
