Yeah. How about this?

- * Return: The head page or shadow entry, %NULL if nothing is found.
+ * Return: The folio, swap or shadow entry, %NULL if nothing is found.
*/
-static struct page *mapping_get_entry(struct address_space *mapping,
- pgoff_t index)
+static void *mapping_get_entry(struct address_space *mapping, pgoff_t index)
{

I still use a struct folio in mapping_get_entry(), but this means that
pagecache_get_page() doesn't change in this patch.
