I don't quite like the proliferation of names starting with __. I don't
think there's a good reason for that, particularly in this case. Also 'pin'
here is somewhat misleading as we already use term "pin" for the particular
way of pinning the page. We could have grab_compound_head() or maybe
nail_compound_head() :), but you're native speaker so you may come up with
better word.

put_compound_head() needs similar treatment as undo_dev_pagemap(), doesn't
it?

This pattern is rather common. So maybe I'd add a helper grab_page(page,
flags) doing
if (flags & FOLL_GET)
get_page(page);
else if (flags & FOLL_PIN)
return try_pin_page(page);
return true;
Otherwise the patch looks good to me now.
