mm: split out a writeout helper from pageout
Patch series "stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout", v3. This series was intended to remove the last remaining users of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE after my other pending patches removed the rest, but spectacularly failed at that. But instead it nicely improves the code, and removes two pointers from struct writeback_control. This patch (of 6): Move the code to write back swap / shmem folios into a self-contained helper to keep prepare for refactoring it.
