afs: Don't use folio->private to record partial modification
AFS currently uses folio->private to store the range of bytes within a folio that have been modified - the idea being that if we have, say, a 2MiB folio and someone writes a single byte, we only have to write back that single page and not the whole 2MiB folio - thereby saving on network bandwidth. Remove this, at least for now, and accept the extra network load (which doesn't matter in the common case of writing a whole file at a time from beginning to end). This makes folio->private available for netfslib to use.
