From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: uprobes: __replace_page() avoid BUG in munlock_vma_page()

syzbot crashed on the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageTail) in munlock_vma_page(), when
called from uprobes __replace_page().  Which of many ways to fix it? 
Settled on not calling when PageCompound (since Head and Tail are equals
in this context, PageCompound the usual check in uprobes.c, and the prior
use of FOLL_SPLIT_PMD will have cleared PageMlocked already).
