writeback: prevent memory cgroup release in writeback module

In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding memory
cgroup.  To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to hold the rcu
read lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup returned by
folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.

In the current patch, the function get_mem_cgroup_css_from_folio() and the
rcu read lock are employed to safeguard against the release of the memory
cgroup.

This serves as a preparatory measure for the reparenting of the
LRU pages.
