Add a function, unlock_page_private_2(), to unlock PG_private_2 analogous
to that of PG_lock.  Add a kerneldoc banner to that indicating the example
usage case.

A wrapper will need to be placed in the netfs header in the patch that adds
that.

[This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of
 PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function]

Changes:
- Remove extern from the declaration[2].
