We dereference page->mapping and page->index directly after calling
find_subpage() and these fields are not valid for tail pages. While
commit 4101196b19d7 introduced the call to find_subpage(), the problem
existed prior to this; I'm going to suggest all the way back to when
THPs first existed.
The user-visible effects of this are almost negligible. To hit it, you
have to mmap a tmpfs file at an unaligned address and then it's only
a disabled optimisation causing page faults to happen more frequently
than they otherwise would.
Fix this by keeping both head and page pointers and checking the
appropriate one. We could use page_mapping() and page_to_index(),
but that's higher overhead.
