Lose the "sub" from all of this.  That's legacy thinking; pages are
pages and folios are folios.  "subpages" was from when we were trying
to use the word "page" for both "the allocation" and "the PAGE_SIZE
range of bytes".

I think this function needs to be called folio_add_file_rmap()

I'd like to lose the 'compound' parameter, and base it on nr_pages ==
folio_nr_pages(), but that may be a step far just now.
