netfs: In readahead, put the folio refs as soon extracted

netfslib currently defers dropping the ref on the folios it obtains during
readahead to after it has started I/O on the basis that we can do it whilst
we wait for the I/O to complete, but this runs the risk of the I/O
collection racing with this in future.

Furthermore, Matthew Wilcox strongly suggests that the refs should be
dropped immediately, as readahead_folio() does (netfslib is using
__readahead_batch() which doesn't drop the refs).
