From: Steve Capper <steve.capper@xxxxxxx>
Subject: rmap: fix compound check logic in page_remove_file_rmap

In page_remove_file_rmap(.) we have the following check:
  VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(compound && !PageTransHuge(page), page);

This is meant to check for either HugeTLB pages or THP when a compound
page is passed in.

Unfortunately, if one disables CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, then
PageTransHuge(.) will always return false, provoking BUGs when one runs
the libhugetlbfs test suite.

This patch replaces PageTransHuge(), with PageHead() which will work for
both HugeTLB and THP.

Fixes: dd78fedde4b9 ("rmap: support file thp")
