From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>

Collapse the two nested loops into one.  This is needed as a step
towards turning this into an iterator.

Note that this drops the "index <= end" check in the previous outer loop
and just relies on filemap_get_folios_tag() to return 0 entries when
index > end.  This actually has a subtle implication when end == -1
because then the returned index will be -1 as well and thus if there is
page present on index -1, we could be looping indefinitely. But as the
comment in filemap_get_folios_tag documents this as already broken anyway
we should not worry about it here either.  The fix for that would
probably a change to the filemap_get_folios_tag() calling convention.
