Prior to commite614a00117, xmbuf_map_backing_mem relied on folio_file_page to return the base page for the xmbuf's loff_t in the xfile, and set b_addr to the page_address of that base page. Now that folio_file_page has been removed from xmbuf_map_backing_mem, we always set b_addr to the folio_address of the folio. This is correct for the situation where the folio size matches the buffer size, but it's totally wrong if tmpfs uses large folios. We need to use offset_in_folio here. Found via xfs/801, which demonstrated evidence of corruption of an in-memory rmap btree block right after initializing an adjacent block.

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 reStructuredText 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.
