I see, no need to look at the compound page head, because folio_order() returns
zero for tail pages, and neatly avoids all of that.

Did you mean base pages instead of tail pages?  A folio can never be a
tail page.


Oh right. I was thinking (incorrectly) that there might be some cases during
the page-to-folio conversion in which a tail page could sort of slip through,
but good point.
