Yes?  I originally did that in a separate patch, then changed my mind.

If PageTransCompoundMap() also detects HugeTLB pages, then it is the "better"
option as it checks that the page is actually mapped huge.  I dropped the change
because PageTransCompound() is just a wrapper around PageCompound(), and so I
assumed PageTransCompoundMap() would detect HugeTLB pages, too.  I'm not so sure
about that after rereading the code, yet again.
