[2/2] mm: pefer fault_around_pages to fault_around_bytes

Commit Message

Lorenzo Stoakes March 17, 2023, 9:58 p.m. UTC

All use of this value is now at page granularity, so specify the variable
as such too. This simplifies the logic.

We maintain the debugfs entry to ensure that there are no user-visible
changes.
