This is only used for adding the first folio to a brand new bio,
so there is nothing to merge with yet at this point.

When the iomap buffered-io code can't add a folio to a bio, it allocates a
new bio and adds the folio to that one. This is done using bio_add_folio(),
but doesn't check for errors.
As adding a folio to a newly created bio can't fail, use the newly
introduced bio_add_folio_nofail() function.
