[PATCH v3] mm/damon/paddr: fix missing folio_put()

From: "andrew.yang" <andrew.yang at mediatek.com>

damon_get_folio() would always increase folio _refcount and
folio_isolate_lru() would increase folio _refcount if the folio's lru
flag is set.

If an unevictable folio isolated successfully, there will be two more
_refcount. The one from folio_isolate_lru() will be decreased in
folio_puback_lru(), but the other one from damon_get_folio() will be
left behind. This causes a pin page.

Whatever the case, the _refcount from damon_get_folio() should be
decreased.
