This is the folio equivalent of page_mapcount().

I thought it did, but it doesn't.  It returns the number of times
the head/base page of this folio is mapped into userspace, which is not
a terribly useful concept.  I suspect this should call total_mapcount()
instead.  Looking through the complete set of patches, it's only used
in debugging code (unaccount_page_cache_page() and dump_page()).
I'm going to withdraw this patch from the next submission until I've
had the chance to think about it some more.
