Subject: start removing writepage instances

Hi all,

The VM doesn't need or want ->writepage for writeback and is fine with
just having ->writepages as long as ->migrate_folio is implemented.

This series removes all ->writepage instances that use
block_write_full_page directly and also have a plain mpage_writepages
based ->writepages.
