Add three functions to manipulate PG_private_2:

 (*) set_page_private_2() - Set the flag and take an appropriate reference
     on the flagged page.

 (*) end_page_private_2() - Clear the flag, drop the reference and wake up
     any waiters, somewhat analogously with end_page_writeback().

 (*) wait_on_page_private_2() - Wait for the flag to be cleared.

Wrappers will need to be placed in the netfs lib header in the patch that
adds that.

[This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of
 PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function]

Changes:
v5:
- Add set and end functions, calling the end function end rather than
  unlock[3].
- Keep a ref on the page when PG_private_2 is set[4][5].

v4:
- Remove extern from the declaration[2].

PAGEFLAG(OwnerPriv1, owner_priv_1, PF_ANY)

So we can set Private2 on any tail page ...

... but when we try to end on a tail, we actually wake up the head ...

... although if we were waiting on a tail, the wake up won't find us ...

if only we had a way to ensure this kind of bug can't happen *cough,
lend your support to the page folio patches*.

Question is, should I remove compound_head() here or add it into the other
functions?

Here's a partial change, but we still need to deal with the assumption that
page_has_private() makes that its output can be used to count the number of
refs held for PG_private *and* PG_private_2 - which isn't true for my code
here.
