Subject: thp: set compound tail page _count to zero

70b50f94f1644 ("mm: thp: tail page refcounting fix") keeps all
page_tail->_count zero at all times.  But the current kernel does not set
page_tail->_count to zero if a 1GB page is utilized.  So when an IOMMU 1GB
page is used at KVM, it wil result in a kernel oops because a tail page's
_count does not equal zero.
