[BACKGROUND] copy_extent_buffer_full() currently does different handling for regular and subpage cases, for regular cases it does a page by page copying. For subpage cases, it just copies the content. This is fine for the page based extent buffer code, but for the incoming folio conversion, it can be a burden to add a new branch just to handle all the different combinations (subpage vs regular, one single folio vs multi pages). [ENHANCE] Instead of handling the different combinations, just go one single handling for all cases, utilizing write_extent_buffer() to do the copying.

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.
