Convert function to use folios throughout. This is in preparation for the removal of find_get_pages_range_tag(). This change removes 5 calls to compound_head(). Initially the function was checking if the previous page index is truly the previous page i.e. 1 index behind the current page. To convert to folios and maintain this check we need to make the check folio->index != prev + folio_nr_pages(previous folio) since we don't know how many pages are in a folio. At index i == 0 the check is guaranteed to succeed, so to workaround indexing bounds we can simply ignore the check for that specific index. This makes the initial assignment of prev trivial, so I removed that as well. Also modify a comment in commit_checkpoint for consistency.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
