[PATCH] afs: Fix dangling folio ref counts in writeback

Commit acc8d8588cb7 converted afs_writepages_region() to write back a
folio batch. If writeback needs rescheduling, the function exits without
dropping the references to the folios in fbatch. This patch fixes that.

This has only been compile tested.
